CIO
dumps student leaders in Chachacha
Students Solidarity Trust
March 12, 2007
Unidentified state security agents waylaid two student leaders in
Gweru and drove them to Chachacha, a place that is 10km outside
Shurugwi in the Midlands.
SST's Program
Officer (Social Safety Net) Simbarashe Moyo retrieved the sullen
students from Chachacha where they had been dumped.
The two student
leaders are Makomborero Pfeveni, ZINASU's
Secretary for Sports and Samuel Mangoma, the treasurer for ZINASU.
According to
the two student leaders, they were arrested in the city of Gweru
after having been trailed by suspected members of the dreaded and
notorios Zimbabwe's spy agency, CIO from Mkoba Teachers College
in Gweru. The two had been distributing ZINASU fliers which called
for the class boycott which ZINASU started this week.
As they got
into to town, the two were then waylaid and asked to produce the
fliers they had on them, inscribed struggle is our birthright. Their
erstwhile hosts then boldly told them to get into a car, whereupon
"we will take you to a place for struggle". They were
driven to Chachacha, some 10km outside Shurugwi.
The two have
since been identified and are currently in the company of Simbarashe
Moyo in Shurugwi and are still recovering from the guerilla and
armbush intimidatory tactics of the Mugabe regime in the face of
increasing public disenchantment.
