BULAWAYO - THE MDC-T has filed an urgent High Court application that seeks to order Police Commissioner General Augustine Chihuri and the co-Home Affairs ministers to force police to immediately release confidential materials they seized at the party's offices last week.

Police in Bulawayo have since last week been withholding fliers and confidential minutes they grabbed from the MDC-T offices after forcing party youths to abort the launch of the "Free Solomon Madzore Campaign."

At least 50 party youths were arrested but were later released without a charge. In the urgent application, MDC T said the raid was illegal and sought an order directing Chihuri and the co-Home Affairs Ministers Kembo Mohadi and Theresa Makone to release all confiscated materials which includes minutes of a national council meeting held in December last year.

The Officer-In-Charge of Bulawayo Central Police Station, Mohadi and Makone are also cited as the first, second and third respondents respectively. The MDC-T said the continued withholding of party materials posed a threat as the information contained might "fall on wrong hands and be doctored."

MDC-T Bulawayo youth assembly chairman Bekithemba Nyathi said the withholding of material was also hampering the party's efforts to implement the resolutions of the December meeting.

The matter has been set down for a hearing this week. Chihuri
