South Africa has issued an arrest warrant for Zimbabwe’s former first lady Grace Mugabe over an alleged assault in an upmarket district of Johannesburg last year. South African government had granted grace Mugabe a diplomatic immunity after the alleged assault with an electric cable came to light last year. That immunity was overturned by a South African court this year after the alleged victim, model Gabriella Engels, challenged the decision. South African police service spokesman Vishnu Naidoo says on Wednesday that a warrant for the arrest of Grace Mugabe has been issued since last Thursday. Grace Mugabe or authorities in Harare have not made a comment.
