Ex-wife of Zimbabwe's vice-president freed after seven years on remand

Marry Mubaiwa, former wife of Zimbabwe's Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga, has been freed after seven years on remand while on trial for his attempted murder. She was charged in 2019 after Chiwenga accused her of impeding his treatment in South Africa. A magistrate cited mental, physical and financial prejudice after the state sought another postponement. Her lawyer called it a late victory.
