Chere had been arrested in connection with the mysterious death of ARTUZ member Roy Issa, who reportedly fell from the seventh floor of a Harare hotel. An inquest into the death of Issa ruled out foul play. However, the Police reopened the case and filed murder charges against Masaraure and Chere. The State proved that Masaraure wrote a statement published on X and the ARTUZ website, aimed at prejudicing his and Chere’s pending trial while inciting teachers’ union members and the public to commit violence. He was convicted by Harare magistrate Feresi Chakanyuka. Masaraure was remanded in custody and was scheduled for sentencing on Thursday morning (today) at the Harare Magistrates Court.
