MDC Alliance National Youth Organiser and Masvingo Urban Ward 4 Councillor, Godfrey Kuraone was granted bail on Wednesday following an appeal by his lawyers against the denial of bail.
Masvingo High Court judge Justice Wamambo granted Kurauone following an appeal by his lawyers from the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights (ZLHR).
Kurauone had been languishing in prison for nine days after he was arrested and charged with insulting President Emmerson Mnangagwa.
He was arrested after he bought food for hungry citizens on the day when President Mnangagwa had called for a national fast. For that, he was arrested for “undermining the authority of the president”.
