On March 30 he was celebrating the victory of Mathias Mlambo in the Musirizwi area of Chipinge and he was attacked by 4 Zanu PF youths from Chipinge East. Noblit Muhluaga stabbed Daniel in the eye. Daniel was also beaten but he ran into hiding in Mozambique.

    This man went into hiding after he was stabbed in the eye. He only came for treatment one month after his attack.

    Crispen Rambo (left), was taken from his home in Chipinge Town. At 3 am Joseph Chiminya arrived in an official vehicle with a gang and broke down the door of Crispen's house. They beat him and hit him on the head with a piece of angle iron. They took him in the official vehicle 40 kms from town to a place called Holland. They beat him again and left him unconscious. He came around at around 6 am and then started walking and was rescued by a well wisher who recognised him as a victim of violence. Crispen was brought in to Mutare and admitted at SASU.
