Zimbabwe's secret police on Thursday arrested top human rights lawyer Alec Muchadehama on as yet unspecified allegations, colleagues said.
Muchadehama was apprehended by three officers of the notorious "law and order" section of the police at the Harare magistrates' court while processing release orders for three high-profile political prisoners granted bail on Wednesday.
The arrest is the latest in a series of arrests of court officials, lawyers, journalists and members of Parliament of the former opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), now in coalition with Mugabe's former ruling Zanu-PF party.
