Last week, @ZANUPF_Official spokesperson Christopher Mutsvangwa admitted there was no reason to continue to detain @namataik_.
Today, 26 August 2024, despite evidence of her innocence, the courts continue to deny Namatai’s bail and have extended her detention until 5 September 2024.
We again call on Zimbabwean authorities to immediately release Namatai and her fellow human rights defenders and to drop all of the clearly spurious charges against them.
🔴Court Update🔴:Today,our team leader @namataik_ reappeared in court after her bail was denied on August 16.She has been remanded until September 5,2024. #FreeNamatai @KofiAnnanFdn @ImpunityWatch @UN_Women @hrw @MVerwijk @fidh_en @REDRESSTrust @Trial @SAHRDNetwork @FrontLineHRD
If ever there was a time when @KofiAnnan’s commitment to diplomatic, rules based engagements to respond to complex trans-border challenge/conflict it is now! We would do well to think on this today.
It is a privilege to work with his foundation.

Idaho friends! If you choose to have an abortion, and need a place to stay, there is always a bed for you at my apartment in Portland. Free. No questions asked. I live very close to a Planned Parenthood, and I will do everything I can to help you, or your sister, or your friend.

Our first estimates suggest that over 40,000 people in the whole of Scotland went on strike for the #GlobalClimateStrike. Which means that approximately, 1 in every 125 Scots striked on Friday. Now, that's pretty cool! @GretaThunberg @Fridays4future
