A magistrate court in Harare, Zimbabwe has denied bail for the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC), the party's interim leader Jameson Timba and 78 activists- who were arrested on June 16 for holding a political gathering which authorities said was unauthorised.

During the bail hearing yesterday, the Zimbabwean police attacked dozens of opposition supporters and arrested several outside a court.
