MDC Alliance Youth Assembly Chairperson Obey Sithole was today arrested and taken to Harare Central Police Station in connection with a demonstration that was held in Warren Park a fortnight ago.
"I can confirm that the MDC Alliance Youth Assembly leader, Obey Sithole has been arrested by Police
"We are yet to be informed of the charges against him," said Mahere.
Sithole's arrest comes a day after MDC Alliance leader Nelson Chamisa's lawyer Thabani Mpofu presented himself before the police to answer to charges of defeating the course of justice.
Advocate Mpofu was expected in court today but at the time of publishing, he was still detained at Rhodesville Police Station with his lawyer Beatrice Mtetwa from the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights expressing concern over the flagrant abuse of his rights.
"It appears Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) arrested Advocate Thabani Mpofu inorder to investigate, instead of investigating first and then arresting.
