Abducted
MDC employee still missing
Movement
for Democratic Change
June 30, 2008
The MDC and family members
of MDC driver, Joshua Bakacheza are making frantic efforts to locate
his whereabouts a week after he was abducted in Harare by 16 armed
men in three trucks.
Bakacheza is part of
the over 5 000 MDC supporters countrywide whose whereabouts remain
unknown after they were abducted by Zanu PF militia and spy agents
driving unmarked vehicles.
Bakacheza was abducted
on Wednesday in Msasa, Harare, together with another MDC activist,
Tendai Chidziwo.
Chidziwo is now recovering
in hospital after he was shot once on right side of the head. Good
Samaritans assisted him after they found him in a state of unconsciousness
in the Beatrice farming area.
He is battling for his
life in an intensive care unit.
However, the whereabouts
of Bakacheza are still unknown. The MDC and the Bakacheza family
search team has visited most hospitals, mortuaries and police stations
in search of Joshua but to avail.
The two were abducted
when they were moving the property of slain MDC National Youth Assembly
secretary for security, Tonderai Ndira.
State security
agents murdered Ndira
after they kidnapped at his home in Mabvuku, Harare on 21 May 2008.
Zanu PF militia and men
in army uniform have murdered 90 MDC activists and supporters since
the announcement of the 29 March elections, in which Zanu PF was
defeated.
