Mayor Manyenyeni wins suspension case
The High Court today ordered the reinstatement of Harare Mayor, Bernard Manyenyeni who had challenged his suspension by Local Government minister, Saviour Kasukuwere over two months ago
Soon after his court ruling, and in strange and suspicious circumstances, the mayor was picked up for questioning by the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission for unclear reasons.
Justice Lavender Makoni ordered Kasukuwere to pay the costs of the suit and interdicted him from suspending Manyenyeni who is now allowed to continue with his duties.
Mayor Manyenyeni was initially suspended on April 20 this year on allegations of insubordination and unprocedurally appointing James Mushore as Harare town clerk.
