Mujuru bond notes' hearing begins

The constitutional court will today hear an application by former Vice President Joice Mujuru in which she is seeking to have government barred from introducing bond notes which are due to start circulating at the end of next month.

Chief Justice Godfrey Chidyausiku granted Mujuru's request for an urgent application which she filed in August following a recent announcement by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe that the surrogate currency will be introduced at the end of October.
