Three women arrested for joining protests against President Mnangagwa won their freedom Thursday. The High Court gave bail to Moreblessing Nkomo, Jenifer Chimange, and Sthabile Maduve after they appealed their case. They faced charges related to the March 31 demonstrations that aimed to remove Mnangagwa from power. Their case was handled separately from 95 other people who remain behind bars for similar offenses.

Judge Lucy Mungwari decided the lower court made a mistake when it refused them bail earlier. She said there were no special reasons to keep them locked up because of public safety concerns. The judge found no connection between their allegedly singing at Copacabana bus station and any threat to public order. Police had arrested these women during protests called for by Blessed Geza, a former Zanu PF member who lives outside Zimbabwe. The government claims police caught the three women participating in illegal activities.
