(MENAFN)An American woman charged with subversion in Zimbabwe for insulting the president on Twitter as a "sick man" is facing the court as her lawyers disputed the charges that carry up to 20 years in prison.
Rose Hanzi, the lawyer for 25-year-old Martha O'Donovan said that the subversion charge was illegal because O'Donovan was not informed of it when she they took her from her home in the capital.
The court disapproved however; and O'Donovan is remaining in custody over the weekend.
