Dewa, 56, was arrested early this month in connection with the death of a police officer in Glen View in May. Unknown revelers at a nightclub murdered the police officer. She was denied bail at the Harare Magistrates’ Courts last week and is detained at Chikurubi Maximum Prison.
The postponement of the bail ruling is nothing but a plot by the State to frustrate Dewa application and make her stay unnecessarily in remand as the State has no incriminating evidence against her.
At least 25 MDC members have been arrested in connection with the death of the police officer including Last Maengahama a member of the MDC National Executive Committee and two councillors, Tungamirai Madzokere of Ward 32, Glen View and Oddrey Sydney Chirombe of Ward 33, Budiriro.
Of the 25 activists, 17 have been granted bail while eight are in remand prison. Those in remand prison are; Clr Madzokere, Rebecca Mafukeni, Yvonne Musarurwa, Cynthia Manjoro, Stanford Maengahama, Lazarus Maengahama, Stanford Mangwiro and Phineas Nhatarikwa.
