MISA-Zimbabwe
March 29, 2007
Frank Chikowore,
a freelance journalist, was on 28 March 2007 arrested in Harare
when the police cordoned off the central business district and raided
the offices of the opposition MDC at Harvest House in the Zimbabwean
capital.
Chikowore is
in police custody at Harare Central Police Station where he is being
held together with 35 MDC supporters who were arrested following
the police raid on Harvest House. Chikowore was arrested while covering
the police actions during which they searched the MDC offices.
Lawyers representing
Chikowore and the MDC supporters said they were now considering
filing for an urgent High Court order as the police were denying
them access to their clients.
