HARARE – Edmund Kudzayi, editor of the Sunday Mail, was not asked to plead and was remanded in custody until a bail hearing on Monday.
The charges against Kudzayi include calling Mugabe a tyrant and dictator, and alleging that he stole an election.
These remarks were allegedly made in publications he wrote before joining state media.
Kudzayi is also facing charges of creating a fictitious Facebook account in the name of Baba Jukwa, who has a cult following for his claims to expose Mugabe government secrets. The Facebook account was a hit during elections last year.
