Confusion continued to dog the opposition MDC-T factional fight with two conflicting processes yesterday taking place at the same time to determine a case in which party president Morgan Tsvangirai is facing disciplinary action.

Around mid-morning, High Court judge, Justice Happious Zhou, granted Tsvangirai an interim relief, apparently stopping the implementation of resolutions made at a national council meeting in April that suspended Tsvangirai and six other party leaders.

However, a  tribunal instituted by the MDC Renewal-Team fronted by Tendai Biti sat at the same time and tried Tsvangirai as well as party national chairperson Lovemore Moyo in absentia.

The Tsvangirai faction spokesperson, Douglas Mwonzora, reacted angrily calling the Renewal group a "bunch of losers.

Tsvangirai was set to appear before the tribunal facing, among other counts, violence, causing division and outright dictatorship as well as usurping the party's constitution and organs.
