Dabengwa challenges High Court

Dumiso Dabengwa opposition Zapu leader has filed an appeal at the Supreme Court, challenging former High Court judge Justice Chinembiri Bhunu's ruling granting the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) discretion to decide whether to use or ignore voters' rolls compiled by the Registrar-General's Office.

In his appeal filed under case number 418/15, Dabengwa said Justice Bhunu "erred in issuing what he termed a mandamus and yet was so general in its terms that it is vague, meaningless and unenforceable".

A mandamus is a legal order to do an administrative action or not to take particular action.
