Guvamombe made the remarks while addressing magistrates, interpreters, clerks of court, transcribers and recorders during a tour of the Harare Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday.

“I urge you to serve our clientele in a polite way and on time. As the Judicial Service Commission, we have adopted zero tolerance to corruption and I urge you to desist from such kind of behaviour,” Guvamombe said.

“I also want to take this opportunity to thank you all for working hard in 2014 and I also encourage you to continue with that spirit and work hard to reduce the case backlog in line with our mission statement to deliver world-class justice.”
