Filmmaker was held in Harare for six weeks after carrying out investigations into corruption
Hopewell Chin’ono, the Zimbabwean journalist held in a high-security
prison for almost six weeks pending trial on charges of inciting violence, has been freed on bail.
Chin’ono was arrested at his home in Harare in July after publishing a series of investigations into corruption in Zimbabwe. He has since been held in an overcrowded cell in Chikurubi jail on the outskirts of the capital, Harare.
