adminweapons in Kuwadzana, have appeared in court charged with public violence.
Shadreck Chitambo (31), Steven Machokoto (30) and Gift Mwadzinga (28) were not formally charged when they appeared before Harare magistrate Mr Donald Ndirowei.
He remanded them out of custody to October 11 on US$20 bail each and ordered them not to interfere with State witnesses.
They were asked to continue residing at their given addresses until their matter was finalised.
Prosecutor, Mrs Svodai Kadivirire, alleged that on September 25 the three, acting in connivance with others still at large went to Kuwadzana 5 Shopping Centre in Harare aboard a Toyota Corrolla and two Nissan Hardbody trucks.
Mrs Kadivirire said they met the complainants Brighton Chitsa and Ngonidzashe Ruzive whom they identified as Zanu-PF youths and they allegedly hatched a plan to assault them.
She said the MDC-T youths disembarked from their vehicles and approached the complainants while holding bricks, bicycle chains and machetes and assaulted Chitsa. They threw bricks at the complainants, one of which struck Chitsa on the right elbow and another struck Ruzive on the right knee injuring them.
Chitsa and Ruzive fled from the scene to avoid further attacks by the group.
On September 27 they positively identified the three MDC-T youths leading to their arrest.
