The councillors were set to resume their duties after Kasukuwere on Monday withdrew his appeal at the Supreme Court in Bulawayo, where he had challenged a ruling by High Court judge, Justice Francis Bere ordering him to reinstate the 11 MDC-T councillors, who include mayor, Hamutendi Kombayi.
The councillors were suspended in August last year on allegations of abuse of office.
The councillors’ lawyer, Reginald Chidawanyika confirmed the new suspensions and said they were yet to be furnished with a full charge sheet.
