President Tsvangirai’s former Personal Assistant abducted

Former Personal Assistant to President Morgan Tsvangirai, Gandhi Mudzingwa was yesterday afternoon abducted while talking to a relative in Msasa, Harare by nine gunmen in six vehicles.


Eyewitnesses at the scene of the incident said Mudzingwa was shoved
into one of the Mazda 626 vehicles which drove off towards the city
centre.

Mudzingwa’s abduction brings to 18 the total number of MDC activists
and civil rights activists abducted in the past one and a half months.

The whereabouts of 15 MDC activists from Banket as well as Zimbabwe Peace Project director Jestina Mukoko remain unknown.

The MDC believes there is a systematic plot to decimate the party
structures, the leadership and civil rights groups involved in
compiling dossiers of violence and human rights abuses. The MDC appeals
to SADC and the African Union, the guarantors of the Globalf Political
Agreement to call for the immediate cessation of violence, terror and
abductions of MDC activists.

The continued onslaught on the MDC and civic society leaders threatens
the dialogue process as the political rights and basic freedoms of
citizens is guaranteed in the Global Political Agreement (GPA).
