Spies stalk Mugabe critics

Top Zanu-PF officials including Cabinet ministers are living in fear of the dreaded government spies, whom they allege are constantly monitoring their movements as the contentious purge of party officials linked to former vice president Joice Mujuru continues.

As the deadly succession wars in Zanu-PF get more vicious, the constant surveillance of ministers has ruffled feathers in the ruling party with some ministers revealing that they are changing as many as three cars a day to shrug off the boys.

Ministers and their deputies are driven by aides provided by the State who stay with them throughout the day, from Monday to Friday and this had caused a sense of paranoia among some who say they are no longer free to enjoy their personal freedoms.
