A brother of missing activist Itai Dzamara, Patson and four others have been granted $5,000 bail for protesting against government's misrule.
The four others are Tatenda Mombeyarara, Makomborero Haruziviishe, Pride Mkono, and Kado.
They faced two courts of robbery and obstructing or defeating the course of justice.
The court heard that their arrest was prompted by women who visited Africa Unit Square where the activists were camping as a build-up to a nation-wide discontent to the political and socio-economic maladministration bedeviling Zimbabwe.
The court also heard that the activists robbed the women and confiscated their property, worth $60.
Meanwhile the other 15 activists who were arrested on the same charge are still languishing in police cells at Harare Central Police Station.
