Police disrupt WOZA meeting
Zimbabwe Human
Rights NGO Forum
June 10, 2011
Officers from
the Law and Order Section of the ZRP (Zimbabwe Republic Police)
and Riot Police today (10 June 2011) raided a house in Bulawayo
where members of Women
of Zimbabwe Arise (WOZA) were having a private meeting. All
members of WOZA managed to escape, but the police still proceeded
to assault innocent tenant at the house. Zimbabwe
Lawyers for Human Rights deployed two of its legal practitioners
to the scene of the raid; these however were denied access and ordered
to leave by the police. WOZA is appalled by the behavior of the
police, particular at this point in time when SADC is attempting,
in South Africa, to broker a roadmap whose aim is to create conditions
for sustainable peace in Zimbabwe.
