Thank You JHL for reminding me that the postponed trial for Lovemore and Wellington is due to be heard tomorrow. They were arrested on the 8th May and accused of "spreading falsehoods prejudicial to the State".
My earlier post gives more details on the issues involved. This post is in solidarity and support of my fellow trade union members plight!
