MDC Alliance Vice President Tendai Biti said he has been detained by ZRP since morning and he has been charged for calling someone an idiot.

In a tweet, Biti said the system is targeting him as usual:

“I have been stuck at CID Law & Order since 11 am being charged with the most spurious ,the most desperate of all charges . It is said I called someone an idiot & that is said to be an  amount assault. No number of harassments will prevent us from fighting & exposing corruption.

The Harare Airport Road project was a total stink where thousands of hectares of land where illegally & fraudulently transferred to Augur Investments & its shelf companies.That land must be returned to the City&its citizens.They want to detain me overnight, so be it.”

Biti did not share many details about who reported him to the police except for the update he shared on the Twitter.

Intrestingly, recently Patrick Chinamasa called for Biti’s arrest, saying he allegedly manhandled a lady at Harare’s Magistrate’s court.
