Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 66339, member: 636"] A Harare court denied bail on Tuesday for 10 former fighters accused of planning to join a protest against President Emmerson Mnangagwa. Magistrate Tapiwa Kuhudzai ordered the group held until November 10 while prosecutors finish their investigation. Authorities arrested Rose Chirenje, 65, and nine others near Africa Unity Square on October 17 after they gathered to support a demonstration organized by ex-official Blessed Geza. Police say the accused sang and danced while preparing for the One Million Men March that aimed to criticize the president over alleged constitutional violations and government misconduct. Officers recovered stones and other projectiles near the arrest location. Prosecutors say the group conspired to encourage public violence through the unauthorized assembly at Robert Gabriel Mugabe Square. [/QUOTE]
