TIMES WIRE REPORTS
Prominent Zimbabwean rights activist Jestina Mukoko was granted bail after three months in detention, but she was unable to leave a hospital.

Mukoko was admitted to the private Avenues Clinic three weeks ago after police repeatedly ignored orders that she receive medical attention.
