Students Solidarity Trust
February 14, 2007
The 12 student leaders who were incarcerated yesterday after attempting
to march to town from Harare Poly are still in police custody.
The ZINASU
President, Promise Mkwananzi is among the 12 who are still in police
custody. No charges have been preferred against them as yet, the
police are still workinig on their dockets.
Indications
are that they will appear in court tomorrow.
The student
leaders were arrested after holding a general meeting at the Harare
Poly, the demonstration was however foiled by riot police.
Students are
demanding that government address the plight of workers, including
that of lecturers. They also contend that the fees they pay are
exorbitant and beyond their reach.
