ZCTU
update on arrested activists
Zimbabwe
Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU)
November 09, 2005
The 120 ZCTU
activists including Wellington Chibebe and Lovemore Matombo, the
ZCTU President, are still in Police custody. They have all been
transfered to Chitungwiza 25 kilometres outside Harare. Reports
we have received but not yet verified indicate that Wellington Chibebe
and a few others were tortured last night. The Police have not given
any reasons for transfering the activists to Chitungwiza.
Among the people arrested are about 20 people living with HIV/AIDS
who cannot access treatment at the moment; five women with babies;
some disabled people. This situation is particularly worrying as
we now fear that there might be some fatalities because of the conditions
these people are in.
