Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) interim leader Senator Jameson Timba and 80 activists have been remanded in custody after Harare Magistrate Ruth Moyo dismissed their bail application.
The CCC activists were challenging their further detention as the state had violated their rights by bringing them to court when the 48-hour time frame had elapsed.
The opposition activists’s Lawyer Tinashe Chinopfukutwa said that the bail hearing would continue tomorrow.
“We have made an application for our clients who were injured and who require X-rays to be taken the state will respond to it tomorrow, and we came back for the continuation of the bail proceedings”, he added.
TImba and the other activists were arrested on Sunday on charges of convening an unsanctioned gathering.
The bail hearing has been set for continuation tomorrow at 11:15.
