In most parts of the country members from the notorious CIO and armed soldiers are masterminding the intimidations and violence with the help of overzealous Zanu (PF) militia and war veterans.
In an interview with The Zimbabwean, the director of the film who requested anonymity for fear of victimisation said: We have been shooting footages of the harassment , intimidation and violence against the MDC supporters in some parts of the country and we want to show the whole world the true picture of what is happening in this constitution making process. It is horrible.
We will show all the evidence of how the Mugabes regime has been harassing the people perceived to be MDC supporters who have the right to exercise their views in writing of the new constitution. We will also show how the police and judiciary system has been inept. We have harrowing images of how some MDC supporters were beaten. I cannot divulge more information on the film, but it will be out very soon, he said.
Meanwhile, top decision making bodies of Zanu (PF) and the two MDC formations convened a historic meeting in Harare last Wednesday to explore ways of eradicating the culture of impunity in the country.
The indaba,which was hosted by the three ministers responsible for national healing and reconciliation, brought together politburo members from Zanu (PF) and national executive members from the MDC formations.
The three-hour meeting, convened by the National Organ on Healing, Reconciliation and Integration, was aimed at ensuring that the three political parties adhere to Article Three and Article 18 of the GPA which urge all parties to shun violence and to promote national healing.
The consensus at the meeting was that the leadership of the parties, as represented by the executive organs, must ensure that the environment on the ground is violence-free and that it is conducive to national healing.
Delegates agreed that there could be no healing without justice and compensation and that the police must arrest all perpetrators of violence in order to kill the festering culture of impunity that has destabilized peace and compromised security of persons in Zimbabwe.
