Sixty-eight Zimbabwean protesters are in court in Harare to apply for bail following their arrest during last Friday's demonstration, the AP news agency reports.
A coalition of political parties and civil society groups called for the protest to demand for political reforms.
Police broke it up using tear gas and water cannon, despite a court ruling saying that it could go ahead.
An Al-Jazeera journalist has tweeted from the court that #Zimbabwe bail application for + 60 arrested during protests starting now. State is opposing bail. Defence want bail granted:
