ROHR Zimbabwe News Alert :Two villagers detained over the Muzarabani disturbances

Virginia Charunda daughter to herdsman of Charunda village together with Mai Chirozva a member of ZANU Pf party were on Friday 2nd April taken in for interrogation over the disturbances that saw more than 50 people fleeing their homes to escape threats of terror in Muzarabani.

Suspicions surrounding their detention among the community members are that they informed the MDC party supporters of the imminent danger that awaited them following a meeting that was held by ZANU Pf supporters on the 26th March at Hoya business centre in which resolutions were passed for youths to be hired from Chivenga village to punish MDC supporters.

Information made available to ROHR Zimbabwe by the MDC district chairman for Muzarabani Freddie Motonhodze is that the whereabouts and status of the detainees is still gloomy and yet to be ascertained by the community members after they were mysteriously taken by the police in the company of sergeant Kapeta, member of CIO Yahwe and assistant inspector for Muzarabani, Majojo on unspecified charges.

On Sunday 4th April Centenary police station intervened to coordinate the safe return of the fear stricken families of Charunda village who had been forced to become internally displaced persons from imminent threats of violence.

ROHR Zimbabwe notes with grave concern that the cancerous culture of impunity continues to flourish and yet the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has the capacity and competency to amicably resolve conflict and quell outbreaks of violence peacefully if they choose to be professional and desist from enforcing the rule of law at the whim of certain political parties.

We note with grave concern that, Paradzai Chabayanzara  is still walking free despite the collective efforts made by the community to apprehend him and hand him over to the police after he was caught committing a crime that constitutes to serious damage to property when he burnt down a church and a house belonging to an MDC member.

We encourage the ministry of home affairs to shun against the unethical conduct of condoning impunity as this in turn has corrosive effect of eroding the dignity and respect of the police force in the eyes of intransigent forces who strive in anarchy.

For Peace, Justice and Freedom
