Zanu thugs seize MDC regalia, documents

MARONDERA-SVOSVE - Zanu (PF) thugs led by war veteran Tsikida of village 17 in ward 21 confiscated MDC-T regalia and important documents from members who had attended the recent party Congress.

Confiscated items included T-Shirts, caps, hand bags with party insignia and information on the congress agenda. Meeting minutes regarding previous MDC-T ward 21 deliberations were also seized, said an MDC-T activist.

Tsikida recently grabbed a homestead allocated to a villager, Peace Muhwati. He kicked off an MDC activist, Gambe, from the stand accusing him of continuing to be MDC despite Tsvangirai being a puppet of western countries. Gambe is nephew to Muhwati the landlord.

Village 17 is headed by headman Muhwati who was accused of conspiring with Zanu (PF) thugs to make life difficult for MDC members. Elsewhere in the district, MDC members who attended the congress were being summoned by a Grasslands area based Zanu (PF) thug, Chidhakwa, to appear before a disciplinary hearing at his homestead.

Chidhakwa, a member of Zanu (PF) district coordinating committee based in ward 4, was last Sunday threatening to take the MDC members to CIO offices for disciplining. The names were already with CIO and what was left was for the accused to report at the CIO offices in company of Chidhakwa. Chidhakwa also warned wanted MDC members against resisting to his demands as dire consequences would follow, said one of the hunted MDC officials yesterday.
