ZANU PF activists and suspected CIO agents disrupt peace-building meeting in Gokwe
Centre for Community Development in Zimbabwe (CCDZ)
July 18, 2012

A meeting on peace-building that had been organised by the Centre for Community Development In Zimbabwe (CCDZ) at Nyamhara Primary School in Ward 14 Gokwe North was disrupted this afternoon by ZANU PF activists and suspected Central Intelligence Organization (CIO) operatives.

About 45 community residents who had turned up for the meeting were told to go back home and not to associate with "regime change NGOs". The ZANU PF activists interrogated the CCDZ programme officers Tinashe Chatira, Vellim Nyama, Tsungai Vere and George Makoni and they recorded the full names, district of origin, national identity registration numbers of the CCDZ employees. The CIOs also wanted to know the source of funding for the Peace-building project and why CCDZ did not have a clearance letter from the Organ on National Healing and Reconciliation or the Midlands governor to conduct the programme in Gokwe.

The CIOs ordered the CCDZ officers to go to the government complex at Chireya but they managed to escape and they are at a safe location.
