Statement
on detention of Munyaradzi Gwisai and 44 others
Catholic Commission
for Justice and Peace in Zimbabwe (CCJP)
March 01, 2011
The Catholic Commission
for Justice and Peace in Zimbabwe (CCJPZ) joins other progressive
voices in calling for the freeing of Munyaradzi Gwisai , the Coordinator
of the International Socialist Organisation and the other 45. The
group was exercising its right to freedom of assembly and association
as enshrined in the Constitution of the Republic of Zimbabwe.
The issues they were
allegedly discussing are maters already in the public domain. There
was nothing new as the events in North Africa are being watched
on various media channels locally.
Zimbabwe is a signatory
to regional, continental and international conventions on civil
and political rights. We call upon the authorities to protect, fulfill
and respect the rights of citizens being charged flimsy thereby
violating their civil and political rights.
