Three MDC-Alliance members - Joana Mamombe, Cecilia Marava and Netsai Chimbira -- who are at the centre of an alleged abduction case, were yesterday ordered to surrender passports as part of their bail conditions after the State alleged that they are mobilising resources to escape from the jurisdiction of the court.

Although he could not reveal who was working with Mamombe, Marava and Chimbira in mobilising resources for their escape, he said he received the wind on June 2, this year.

The trio's lawyer Mr Jeremiah Bamu refuted the claims, saying the police should have charged Mamombe, Marava and Chimbira for such acts.

She said Mamombe, Marava and Chimbira failed to prove to the court that they were not mobilising resources to escape.

Mamombe, Marava and Chimbira are expected to be back in court on August 13, 2020 for their routine remand.
