The hearing into the constitutional challenge by former Dzivarasekwa MP Solomon Madzore, who is accused of labelling President Robert Mugabe a "limping donkey", was yesterday deferred to next Wednesday by the Constitutional Court (ConCourt).
Madzore is alleged to have made the remarks at an MDC-T rally at Mushumbi Pools business centre, Guruve, in April 2013.
According to local laws, it is a criminal offence to say anything that creates feelings of hostility, cause hatred, contempt or ridicule of the country's President.
Madzore, who was expelled from Parliament on Tuesday for crossing the floor to join the MDC Renewal Team alongside 20 other former MDC-T legislators, wants the provisions of that law struck off the statutes.
