Czech Tourist Lukas Slavik Granted Bail After Three Weeks In Detention

A Czech tourist, Lukas Slavik, who spent three weeks in detention for allegedly spreading falsehoods intended to incite public unrest, was granted bail by a High Court Judge in Masvingo on Wednesday, August 21.

According to The Mirror, Justice Sunsley Zisengwe ordered Slavik to deposit $500 with the Clerk of Court and to reside at the Consulate of the Czech Republic at 11 Walmer Drive, Newlands, in Harare until the case is resolved.

He must also report to the ZRP Highlands every Friday between 6 AM and 6 PM.

Additionally, the court ordered Slavik to surrender his passport and refrain from contacting state witnesses.

Slavik was arrested for allegedly recording a video in which he claimed that Masvingo was facing a severe water and electricity crisis.

He was charged with publishing false statements intended to incite public unrest.

Masvingo Provincial Magistrate Franklin Mkwananzi initially denied him bail, citing concerns that he might flee the country.

However, Czech Deputy Ambassador Michael Novak provided assurance last week that the Embassy would accommodate Slavik and ensure his compliance with bail conditions.

Slavik is represented by Knowledge Mabvuure of Chihambakwe Law Chambers.

States v L Slavick I wonder how the trial is going to proceed. The lawyer of the accused are going to have a field day.Just imagine the police officer being asked the following questions in court by the lawyer. Laywer :"Officer how long have been in the police force?" Police Witness: "20years" Lawyer:"Why did you arrest the accused?" Police Witness : "He was taking videos" Lawyer:Do appreciate he is tourist?" Police Witness :" Yes." Laywer :"Do you also appreciate that tourists come into the country with cameras to capture scenes of interest.?" Police Witness : "Yes." Lawyer : Do you also appreciate the scene that presented itself before the accused was a unusual scene of interest that represented itself before my client?" Police Witness :" Yes." Lawyer "What was my client supposed to do since he is a tourist?" Policy Witness : He should not have taken the videos" Lawyer:Under which section of the law?" Police Witness "I do not know." Lawyer : " You also said he reportedly told whoever's it was there was no water and electricity in Masvingo city?" Police Witness "Yes." Lawyer: "Do you agree with me that right now as we are speaking there is o what at this court complex?" Police Witness :" Yes." Lawyer : " Do you also agree with me that right now as this court is sitting there no electricity in this court?" Police Witness "Yes." Lawyer "When my client said there was no water and electricity in Masvingo Town was he lying." Police Witness "I don't know." Lawyer "I f you don't know, why did you arrest my client." Police Witness "I don't know,I was taking instructions from above." Lawyer : "Do you appreciate that the law under which you arrested my client was struck off in of Job Sikhala and others?" Police Witness, :" Yes." Lawyer : " So why then did arrest him." Police Witness:Iwas acting under instructions.."

Welcome to the North of Limpopo Banana Republic where telling the truth is a criminal offence. I could be jailed saying mudehenya ra reigning Mutapa makazara poep, when everyone with an iota of sense knows that's a fact (not counting the ZANU Praise & Worship choir - which incidentally also uses poep for brains). 🤬🤬🤬
