Incarcerated Tanzanian opposition leader Tundu Lissu on Tuesday lamented being “sick and tired” of delays after a magistrate adjourned his treason case for the fourth time.

The magistrate postponed the case until July 30 to give state prosecutors more time to implement comprehensive protection procedures for witnesses once the hearing begins at the High Court.
