*MDC Castigates The NPA For 'Persecuting' Rather Than 'Prosecuting' The Accused* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?ff The MDC has castigated the manner in which the State, through the National Prosecuting Authority, abuses court processes and end up persecuting rather than prosecuting the accused. This follows the revelations in court yesterday that Chief prosecutor Michael Reza chided a magistrate involved in the trial of MDC senior official Tendai Biti. Reza allegedly wrote a text message to a fellow prosecutor that the magistrate was either very brave or stupid for allowing journalists to live stream Biti’s trial without the approval of the Chief Justice. ---------- *HOT DEALS:* *itel A70 - (128GB, 3GB RAM) $89,* *itel A70 - (256GB, 4GB RAM) $99* *itel P40 (128GB, 4GB), (6000mAh) $99* *itel P40 (64GB, 4G), (6000mAh) $93* *LATEST: itel S24 (128) $124; S24 (256GB) $159* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

Tendai Biti’s trial is not only shocking but unacceptable. > This is clearly contemptuous of the court and a clear expression of personal interest in the matter. > This bias is, however, a reflection of wider challenges within the National Prosecution Authority. The Constitution makes it clear that the NPA must be independent. However, Reza has exposed his bias in contravention of this principle. > We have also stated that all the cases against vice-president Morgen Komichi, Honourable Biti, Honourable Happymore Chidziva have nothing to do with prosecution but persecution. Reza’s text message vindicates our view. *Related:* *Prosecutor Labels Magistrate Either ‘Brave’ Or ‘Stupid’ For Allowing Live Streaming Of Biti Trial* *More: Newsday* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
