ELLIOT Mabeza, an official with the Nelson Chamisa-led opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) party in Beitbridge East, literally got himself between the horns of a dilemma after he allegedly organised an unsanctioned pre-electoral rally in the border district on March 13 this year.
The 54-year old Mabeza who is the CCC Chairperson in Beitbridge East, is now being accused of contravening the Maintenance of Peace and Order Act [Chapter 11:23] by law authorities in Zimbabwe.
He is being represented by the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights (ZLHR).
“In Beitbridge, we are representing 54 year-old Elliot Mabeza, a resident arrested (and) charged for contravening MOPO Act after he allegedly convened a @CCCZimbabwe campaign rally on 13 March. We are also representing another resident 49 year-old Pardon Ruvengera, arrested (and) charged for allegedly breaching the Electoral Act,” tweeted the ZLHR.
On Mabeza’s issue, and, in thanking the ZLHR for representing him, the CCC Matabeleland South Province said:
“Maveza is the CCC Beitbridge East chairperson. Thank You
