Mahlangu was served with a
summons for a court appearance on 27th September. She
was also told that the bosses of Law and Order wanted
to question her. She has not been charged however and
as she was being held in the same room as ZCTU
members, it is suspected that her arrest and detention
is linked to the planned ZCTU strike on 19th and 20th.
Human rights lawyers were in attendance through the
day and reported that she is in good spirits. There is
concern for her well being however given the various
death threats made against her in the recent past and
given the brutal beatings that ZCTU members received
yesterday in Harare.
