Aus Embassy urges govt to find Dzamara

It has been over 3 weeks since the disappearance of human rights activist and leader of Occupy Africa Unity Square movement, Itai Dzamara. We remain seriously concerned by his disappearance, and for his welfare.

The Australian Embassy reiterates its call on the Government of Zimbabwe to do everything in its power to find Mr Dzamara. We note the High Court judgment of 13 March, which orders the Zimbabwean authorities to mount a search for Mr Dzamara and regularly report on progress until he is found.

As Chair of the African Union and Southern African Development Community, we look to Zimbabwe to lead the way in demonstrating the utmost respect for the fundamental rights protected under its Constitution.
