Official summary of the case against Jonathan Moyo and others

Higher Education Minister Jonathan Moyo dominated the news this week because of his alleged misuse of funds belonging to the Zimbabwe Manpower Development Fund.

The media onslaught, especially from Zimbabwe Newspapers, which Moyo once controlled (and sometimes abused some would say) as Minister of Information has caught many by surprise prompting some to agree with Moyo that the case has become political.
