The judiciary will today host ceremonies to mark the official opening of the 2023 legal year across the country.
Chief Justice Luke Malaba will preside over the main event in Harare, while other Constitutional Court judges will lead ceremonies in other provinces.
The Chief Justice is expected to set the tone for the legal year, while also giving an overview of the state of affairs in the country’s justice delivery system.
