Harare Magistrate Don Ndirowei today postponed to 8 April 2013 the matter in which prominent human rights lawyer Beatrice Mtetwa is accused of defeating or obstructing the course of justice.
Magistrate Ndirowei postponed the matter to allow the human rights lawyer's legal representatives, Advocate Thabani Mpofu and Harrison Nkomo, to file an application challenging her placement on remand, and for the State to furnish Mtetwa with a trial date.
The lawyers will argue that no offence was disclosed by the State and thus Mtetwa should not have been placed on remand.
