More than 1 000 Zimbabwean readers of the Daily News and its sister weekly, Daily News on Sunday, will next week petition the High Court under the Class Action Act to order the reopening of the two newspapers shut down by the government two months ago. At least 1 017 people from various parts of the country had by Tuesday this week appended their signatures to the petition that is being handled by human rights advocacy group, the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights (ZLHR).
