Priscilla Chigumba, a High Court Judge, on Tuesday describing Morgan Tsvangirai's party headquarters as a hub of violence.
According to NewZimbabwe.com, Chigumba said this when she reserved the ruling on the bail application by three MDC-T activists facing charges of murdering a police officer.
Darlington Madzonga, Edmore Musvubhi and Barnabas Mwanaka were arrested a fortnight ago after an officer from the Police Reaction Group died of injuries sustained from battles with vendors near Harvest House.
Justice Chigumba on Tuesday said Harvest House was now notorious for violence and giving bail to the accused persons who are alleged to have committed the crime at the same place was going to reduce citizen's confidence in the country's justice delivery system.
Whenever there are protests in central Harare, the police raid the opposition party's head office. ZRP officers have in the past camped at the MDC-T HQ situated between 1st street and Angwa Street, literally blocking the road.
