Just a word of caution before you click on the video above, this does not make for very easy viewing. Consider yourselves warned.
Now I don’t think any of more informed out there believe that the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) are going to be playing it down the line. After all, it’s 2015 and we have seen multiple examples of their brutality over the years. They remain at the beck and call of Robert Mugabe so we shouldn’t expect anything less than a blatant disregard for basic human rights.
It is not known what the man did to earn his public walloping but it doesn’t take much to raise the ire of the ZRP. Concern in the country is growing regarding the whereabouts of political activist and journalist Itai Dzamara, who was recently abducted from a barbershop in Harare. This from News24:
Reports say five men stormed the barbershop and accused him of stealing a cow before they bundled him into an unmarked white twin-cab bakkie.
Since his abduction, Dzamara’s phone has been switched off and he has not had any contact with his family.
Reports say that lawyers have not found him in police custody, despite being told that he was being held at Harare Central police station.
If only Zimbabwe’s neighbours would take a dim view on Mugabe’s human rights violations and put pressure on the leader to step down. Oh, wait.
