The Judicial Services Commission (JSC) has announced the suspension of trials for the next two months as part of measures to reduce the spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19).

In a statement, the commission said the measures were being implemented under the direction of the Chief Justice of Zimbabwe, Justice Luke Malaba, following the public notice and pronouncements by President Emmerson Mnangagwa on COVID – 19 protection measures.

“Trials and non-urgent hearings must be postponed for a period not less than two months except urgent matters, bail applications and initial remands.
