MDC-T Youth Assembly chairman Solomon Madzore had his passport returned by the High court on Friday, to enable him to travel to Europe.

Lawyer Gift Mtisi told SW Radio Africa that their application to have Madzore’s passport released by the registrar of the High Court was granted by a High Court Judge. Madzore is set to travel to Europe on party business soon after the referendum on 16th March.

However Mtisi said this was a temporary arrangement as Madzore would return the passport to the High court on 25th March.

‘Madzore will be travelling between the 16th and 24th of this month and as soon as he is back he will hand over the passport to the registrar of the High court,’ Mtisi. The youth leader, who is one of 29 MDC-T members facing charges of murdering a police officer in 2011, is out of custody on police bail.

The trial, which was supposed to resume on Friday after a one and half week break, was postponed to Monday. Mtisi explained that the state prosecutor told them that their last witness to testify will only be available on Monday.

The state’s last witness is Cuban pathologist, Dr Alveiro Aguero who carried out the post-mortem on the late Inspector Petros Mutedza.

    This guy wants to run away before he answers for the suspected murder charge. What party business can be carried out by this miserable looking man? Even if he runs away, Solomon Madzore should realize that all crimes of a criminal nature are not ‘spent crimes’ as they can still be tried even after 30 or more years’ absence from the country.

      How can he run away from these malicious false charges. There is no case to answer my dear , you will see that all are going to be set free very soon. Look at you stupid ugly face before you comment on Solomon`s face.

      Chimbwido Warvet (you thrive singing for your supper), there was no crime committed by the Glen View 29, MDC-T activists but political persecution by those in power against their perceived opponents. It was once pointed out to you and will be repeated here again, in case, you have forgotten, “you are not committed to the social justice and Human Rights of the Zimbabwean people”.
