ZimRights slams Mugabe attack on judiciary

ZimRights yesterday joined other rights defenders and civil society groups in condemning President Robert Mugabe's unrestrained attack on the judiciary at the weekend, saying the Zanu PF leader's utterances were tantamount to overriding the Constitution.

Mugabe described as negligent and reckless judges, who have sanctioned political demonstrations against the Zanu PF government during the past few weeks. His attack on the judiciary has raised concern among lawyers, demonstrators, opposition parties and human rights defenders.
