Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>A Harare magistrate on Monday deferred to Wednesday afternoon the ruling in Zengeza West legislator Job Sikhala\u2019s (MDC Alliance) fresh bail application on changed circumstances.<\/p>\n

Magistrate Tafadzwa Miti said that she needed to go through the High Court judgment that resulted in the bail order that Sikhala violated.<\/p>\n

Sikhala made a ninth bail application saying his co-accused was granted $300 000 and he should be treated equally.<\/p>\n

He also argued that investigations into their matter had been completed with a trial date already set, which warranted him bail in changed circumstances.<\/p>\n

The State opposed granting of Sikhala\u2019s bail saying he should look at reasons that saw him denied bail on his initial court appearance.<\/p>\n

Sikhala is jointly charged with Chitungwiza North Godfrey Karakadzai Sithole (CCC) on incitement to commit public violence.<\/p>\n

The charge emanated from the violence that rocked Nyatsime in June this year following the murder of CCC activist Moreblessing Ali by Pius Mukandi, a relative of a local ZANU PF official.<\/p>\n
