MDC-T to convene crisis meeting over the weekend

Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai’s MDC-T party was expected to convene a crisis meeting of its National Council over the weekend, to deliberate on the continued persecution of Treasurer General Roy Bennett, amongst other issues. On Monday the High Court acquitted Bennett of the cooked-up terrorism charges filed against him. The Attorney General initially said he would not appeal the acquittal in the Supreme Court but after some discussion with various ZANU PF big-wigs, he changed his mind.
