MDC secretary-general Douglas Mwonzora has been removed from remand after he was arrested for failing to turn up for trial in a case of negligent driving.

He is facing charges of negligent driving, failure to insure and licence a motor vehicle after he was involved in an accident.

According to the State, on May 27 last year, Mwonzora was driving a Toyota Land Cruiser along Tynwald Road in Harare.

It is alleged the vehicle was neither insured nor licensed, contrary to the provisions of the Road Traffic Act.

The State alleges that when Mwonzora approached the intersection of Kirkman Drive and Tynwald Road, he reversed and bumped into another Toyota Land Cruiser which was behind him, and was being driven by Onismo Muzhingi.

No one was injured in the accident and both vehicles sustained minor damages.

The State alleges that Mwonzora was negligent after he failed to keep his vehicle under proper control.

Prosecutor  Isheunesu Mhiti is on record saying Mwonzora' vehicle was neither insured nor licensed, contrary to the provisions of the Road Traffic Act.
