Anti-riot police deployed on all roads leading to Tsvangirai's HQ

Police yesterday deployed anti-riot personnel on all roads leading to the MDC-T headquarters, Harvest House, in Harare in anticipation of civil unrest after opposition party leader Morgan Tsvangirai last week threatened to mobilise mass demonstrations against government.

Anti-riot police arrived at Harvest House early yesterday morning and ordered street vendors operating near the MDC-T headquarters to disperse.

By midday, police continued milling around the area, closely monitoring the situation.
