Zimbabwe opposition rallies in Harare
Zimbabwe’s opposition will hold rallies in the capital Harare today thanks to a favourable court ruling with only weeks to go before its leader faces Robert Mugabe in a presidential runoff.
The court ruling means a police ban cannot be enforced, said Nqobizitha Mlilo, a spokesman for the Movement for Democratic Change. The embattled opposition, however, suffered setbacks elsewhere, including the arrest of a prominent member.
