“We were waiting for these court papers and since we now have them, very soon we will attach their property,” he said.
“I am going to sit with my aides and agree on the dates as and when we should go and attach the property.”

Chief Negomo summoned PM Tsvangirai and his in-laws to his court to answer to charges of disrespecting traditional values.
PM Tsvangirai was ordered to pay two cattle, two sheep, 10 metres of white cloth and a ball of snuff to appease the spirits.
The judgment was passed in default after the PM failed to attend the court session.
PM Tsvangirai wrote a letter through his lawyers telling Chief Negomo that the traditional leader had no jurisdiction over him.
But, another letter written by the PM’s young brother Manasa said the PM could not attend the court because of other commitments.
He said the court should proceed in his absence.
Although the judgment was forwarded to him, PM Tsvangirai did not pay the fine, prompting Chief Negomo to move the process of attaching his property.
