August 17,
2010
MDC Member of Parliament
for Masvingo West, Hon. Tachiona Mharadza has been detained by police
in Masvingo on trumped up charges of waving a gun and disrupting
a Zanu PF meeting at ward 14 Zano in Masvingo North. Hon Mharadza
was today picked up at his home in Masvingo at around 3pm and is
still detained by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of
Masvingo.
According to the police,
Hon Mharadza disrupted a Zanu PF meeting after waving a gun towards
the gathering. Masvingo provincial chairman, Wilsatff Sitemere has
however denied the charges against Hon. Mharadza.
According to Stemere,
there was an MDC meeting held at Zano yesterday when Zanu PF youths
converged at the meeting making noise and claiming that the gathering
was a Zanu PF gathering leading to a scuffle between them and MDC
youths.
Zanu PF youths however
were quick to report on the case leading to the arrest of Hon. Mharadza
who was nowhere near the district.
