The Media Alliance of Zimbabwe advises members of the Zimbabwean public, the Ministry of Media, Information and Publicity, and Members of Parliament of its decision not to attend the Zimbabwe All Stakeholders Media Conference scheduled for this week from the 6th to the 9th of May 2008

It is MAZ's view that their re-detention
represents an apparent abuse of the judicial process which undermines
the spirit and letter of the Global Political Agreement, especially as
regards the restoration of a political environment that is democratic
and respectful of the rule of law, as well as cognisant of the urgency
of ensuring the security and freedom of human rights defenders and
citizens in general.
