Gokwe Nembudziya legislator, Justice Mayor Wadyajena's warrant of arrest issued earlier this month by the Victoria Falls Magistrate Court has been cancelled.
Cde Wadyajena was issued with the arrest warrant for failing to attend the court session for the ruling following an application to refer the case to the Constitutional Court.
The magistrate cancelled the warrant based on the fact that Wadjajena's default was not wilful as he was on state assignment in Lusaka, Zambia.
Wadyajena's lawyer, Givemore Muvhiringi had earlier been advised to bring precedence -supporting act or ruling on a similar case dealt with before to the court to support his argument that the state is contradicting itself by sending his client on foreign duty and then go on to issue a warrant of arrest.
Wadyajena is being accused of disorderly conduct in a public place and will appear in court on the 25th of April for the trial.
