Information Minister Monica Mutsvangwa said this during a post cabinet media briefing. Mutsvangwa said the provisions of the Maintenance of Peace and Order Bill will be in conformity with the Constitution. In October last year, the Constitutional Court (Con-Court) delivered a landmark ruling saying POSA is unconstitutional. The ConCourt ruled specifically that Section 27 of the Public Order and Security Act (Chapter 11:17) is unconstitutional. Section 27 allowed fot temporary prohibition of holding public demonstrations within particular police districts. ---------- *Latest itel S24 now available on Pindula* $124 Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

Under Posa, police enjoyed wide and discretional powers; such as sanctioning or banning public gatherings and peaceful demonstrations. _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
