The Constitutional Court will tomorrow hear a combined court challenge filed by Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai and three others where the applicants were seeking an order to set aside President Mugabe's proclamation of July 31 as the date for the harmonised elections.

Tsvangirai's lawyer Advocate Lewis Uriri confirmed the development yesterday, adding that lawyers representing MDC leader Welshman Ncube, Nixon Nyikadzino and Maria Phiri had agreed to file a single application to counter Mugabe's proclamation date.

Meanwhile, Tsvangirai's aide Thabani Mpofu yesterday accused Attorney General Johannes Tomana of being corrupt and insisted that their case be referred to the Supreme Court bench.

Mpofu is jointly charged with Warship Dumba, Mehluli Moyo and Felix Matsinde of being found in possession of dockets that could have been used to discredit the judicial system.
