Treason trial demo planned for London

LONDON - A demonstration outside Zimbabwe House in London on Monday 21 March at 12noon has been called as part of the international day of action demanding the release of the detainees facing charges of treason.

Six Zimbabwean activists are on trial for their lives. Munyaradzi Gwisai, Hopewell Gumbo, Tafadzwa Choto, Welcome Zimuto, Eddson Chakuma, and Tatenda Mombeyarara are charged with treason which is punishable by death. The group was arrested on 19 February while attending a lecture and watching television footage of the uprising in Egypt. Nobody should face charges for discussing political events that the whole world is watching.

Please attend (if you can) the demo here in London and help publicise it. There is also now a website set up: http://www.freethemnow.com
