Talent Rusere, an activist, was in court on Friday. He is facing charges related to violence and immigration issues.
The court says Mr. Rusere recently left Zimbabwe without the right documents. He went to Botswana but did not have a valid passport. Botswana sent him back to Zimbabwe on December 23. He was then arrested.
Officials also accuse Mr. Rusere of making videos that could cause violence. They say he sent out messages on the internet. The messages were about an election in Mozambique that some people disputed.
Authorities believe Mr. Rusere's videos made Zimbabweans on social media threaten violent acts. They think he was trying to support the opposition party in Mozambique that questioned the election results there.
The court is holding Mr. Rusere in jail for now. He can ask to be released on bail on Monday. Police from different agencies worked together to arrest him at a border support center in Plumtree.
