A soldier fires shots towards demonstrators, on August 1 2018, in Harare, as protests erupted over alleged fraud in the country’s election.
Protests in Zimbabwe’s historic elections turned bloody on August 1 as a man was shot dead during demonstrations over alleged vote fraud and the president appealed for calm. The man died after soldiers fired live ammunition during opposition protests in downtown Harare, AFP reporters saw.

However, now that they are in place, one hopes that they will not ignore factors such as why Vice-President initially denied that there had been any shooting incident, trying to give an impression that the deceased had been stabbed to death.
We hope the Commission will try to establish the motive of forcing doctors to write reports that the deceased had died of stab wounds, to the extent that at least one of the families had to hire the services of lawyer to ensure that a correct report of the cause of death was written.
Failure to address these and other issues will prove to the world that ED is fake.
