The Magistrates’ Court, Rotten Row has dismissed Job Sikhala’s application challenging his placement on remand.
Magistrate Stanford Mambanje ruled that initial remand is only concerned with reasonable suspicion.
His lawyers will now apply for him to be granted bail for the obstruction of justice case.
Sikhala is accused of obstructing the course of justice after he allegedly told mourners at Moreblessing Ali’s funeral that she was kidnapped and murdered by ZANU PF supporters.
