The newly elected MP, Naison Nemadziwa was bundled into the back of a waiting car and driven away, after he became involved in an argument with a group of six men. The incident took place in full view of shocked passersby after the MP had gone to the court to hear an electoral petition filed by Joseph Chinotimba, the losing Zanu-PF candidate in the Buhera South constituency.
Elton Mangoma, the MDC acting treasurer-general, said having worked with intensity in the last week to get information on his whereabouts, most party officials in Manicaland were now seriously concerned about his safety.
‘We are dealing with a rogue regime that can do anything, so obviously we are all worried about his well-being.’ Mangoma said.Pishai Muchauraya, the MDC MP for Makoni South in the province, said they
identified one of his abductors as Zimbabwe National Army Colonel Morgan Mzilikazi. The army officer, together with Chinotimba, has been waging a war of post election violence against MDC activists in Buhera.
