Student
victimisation hits an alarming rate
Zimbabwe
National Students Union (ZINASU)
November 13, 2007
Masvingo
The unshameful
state apparatus, irregardless of the torture and unwarranted 30
days remand in prison of Edison Hlatswayo, have today the 12th of
November 2007 served six student leaders with indefinite suspension
letters and immediately evicted them from their halls of residence.
The victims being, Orgylife Makova, George Makamure, Courage Ngwarai,
Edmore Makonjese, Leonard Gwata, Thomas Chanakira and a female student
Brenda Mupfurutsa, are expected to leave campus and sort their way
to their respective homes and unfortunately they all stay out of
Masvingo.
In light of the foregoing,
Zimbabwe National Student Union has engaged the Zimbabwe Lawyers
for Human Rights to draft a High Court application to allow the
students to be reinstated or at least be able to sit for their examinations
that will be commencing in a weeks' time. Student Solidarity Trust
has however put systems in place to assist the students with regard
to alternative accomodation, meals and subsistence as the application
is being worked on.
Zimbabwe National Students Union holds the government of Zimbabwe
accountable and responsible for the suffering of students in Masvingo.
