A Harare magistrate on Thursday denied an application for a discharge filed by eight MDC-T members who are facing charges of public violence.

The eight are part of 11 MDC-T activists who were arrested early this year after the police stormed Harvest House, the MDC-T headquarters in central Harare.

Through their lawyer, the eight activists had applied for a discharge after the State witnesses completed giving their evidence. The magistrate ruled that they should stand trial.

During the raid, the heavily armed police officers also confiscated MDC-T party regalia, DVDs and CDs from the MDC's shop.

Patson Murimoga, Jefias Moyo and Leonard Dendera were acquitted last month.

Those who will stand trial on 11 July are; Mwanaka, Taurai Nherera, Simbarashe Makaha, Muchineripi Muzengeza, Samson Nerwande , Murambiwa Dzwenge, Kudakwashe Usai and Paul Majarira.
