Pastor Evan Mawarire has reportedly been summoned by Zimbabwe Republic Police to report to Harare Central on Tuesday.

According to reports, his lawyer Harrison Nkomo said police are keen on talking with Mawarire who is currently in South Africa.

On Wednesday, President Robert Mugabe warned Mawarire, the #ThisFlag movement, against getting involved in politics. Mawarire has called for protests against the government.

"Once you begin to get involved with our politics, you are courting real trouble," Mugabe said. "We know how to deal with our enemies who have been trying all along to effect regime change,".

But Mawarire on Wednesday morning took to micro blogging site twitter to fire back, saying nothing would stop his "sun from rising".

"Dear Mr President, you cannot stop your sun from setting and you will most definitely not stop mine from rising #ThisFlag," he said.
