Journalists freed on bail in Zimbabwe
Two British journalists have been released on bail today, just hours before they had to appear in court to face charges of violating Zimbabwe’s strict media laws and immigration offences.
Toby Harnden, 35, and Julian Simmonds, 45, who both work for the Sunday Telegraph, were freed from Harare’s central remand prison and handed over to British diplomat David Ashford after being held overnight in defiance of a judge’s bail order.
