The Zimbabwean in South Africa are today demonstrating and marching to the Zimbabwean Embassy in that country where they are demanding the end to human rights violations back home.
This was revealed by the Zimbabwean group leader Ngqabutho Mabhena.
"Zimbabwean citizens and friends of Zimbabwe demand an end to Human Rights violations. The Zimbabwe Solidarity Network brings together fraternal organizations in civil society, education and other pressure groups to march to the Zimbabwean Embassy in Pretoria, South Africa. The collective stands in solidarity against Human Rights abuse in the country," he said.
"Zimbabwe Solidarity Network ("ZSN") stands against the tyranny that has gripped Zimbabwe over the last few years. We also stand with the ordinary citizens that have arisen and are fighting against the oppressive regime on the frontlines in Zimbabwe. In a show of our support, ZSN is inviting all Zimbabweans and friends of Zimbabwe to join us in a march and demonstration of our unity with those who are struggling for justice in Zimbabwe."
Mabhena said in recent times we have seen an escalation of police brutality, enforced disappearances, extra judicial torture and general gross human rights violations that have become common practise under the corrupt government of Zimbabwe.
"The march will start at Burgers Park in Pretoria at 10:00am. From there, we will march to the Embassy of Zimbabwe. ZSN will hold a press briefing outside the offices of the Embassy and submit a memorandum of demands," he said.
"We encourage citizens across the SADC Region who seeks to express their solidarity support for the demands and concerns of Zimbabweans to be present. We are resolved as ZSN; a network of progressive South African civil society organizations that include youth, women, labour, faith-based, human rights and student formations in South Africa and across the region."
He said the march will start at 10:00am from Burgers Park in Pretoria and end at the Embassy of Zimbabwe (798 Merton Ave, Pretoria, 0083, South Africa).
