TERTIARY education minister Jonathan Moyo's family revealed they had suffered another horrendous visitation from the military.
"Our house was brutally attacked by soldiers today. They destroyed the new gate that had replaced the one they destroyed with semi-automatic weapons on the night of the coup," said the family member.
"They also destroyed doors that had been repaired after they were riddled with bullets on the night of the coup. They ransacked all the rooms in the house, smashed the CCTV system and looted the house.
"Outside they damaged cars, including official government vehicles. As a result, Mrs Moyo and the kids have become traumatised beyond description as this has come hardly a week after the deadly semi-automatic weapons attack on the home by the Army's SAS forces.
"Unlike the first attack which was done at 2:30am, today's destruction was done in broad daylight. Mrs Moyo is from Kenya and holds a Kenyan passport."
