Mubaiwa, former wife of Zimbabwe's Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga, has been released from remand after seven years of trial. The delay in proceedings led to the decision, as she had suffered mental, physical and financial prejudice. Chiwenga traveled to China for treatment after his hospitalization in Pretoria. Mubaiwa's lawyer welcomed the release but stated that it came too late, alleging that her rights were violated. The State may still pursue a new trial.
