The Zanu-PF Harare province has recommended the expulsion of former chairman Amos Midzi and several other officials fingered in acts contrary to the party's code of conduct.
The province has also recommended that Miriam Chikukwa and others be suspended for five years.
The Acting Zanu-PF Harare Chairperson Godwills Masimirembwa says the provincial co-ordinating committee has recommended that 16 members who were actively involved in the plot to unseat President Robert Mugabe from power should be expelled from the party as they are a security threat.
"That the offences committed by Noah Mangondo, Tendai Savanhu, Bonifce Karoro, Right Banda, Amos Bernard Midzi, Christopher Chigumba, Angeline Matambanadzo, Prince Shinya, Torongo Torongo, Tongai Nheta, Brian Hwenjere, Andrew Tiriboyi, Munyaradzi Mugomeza, Olivia Mususa and Tendai Diwa constitute acts of disloyalty and treachery and they should be expelled from the party in line with Article 267(c) of the party's constitution," said Masimirembwa.
Masimirembwa also told the media that the province has agreed that 25 members who had votes of no confidence passed against them at the end of last year be suspended from the party for a period of five years.
"The party ruled that offences committed by Edith Kagoro, Tsitsi Jadagu, Idah Mashonganyika, Albertina Bwititi, Varaidzo Mupunga, Miriam Chikukwa, Eva Chaneta, Susan Chuma and Clyde Mutero constituted acts of gross misconduct, hence it was recommended that they be suspended from the party for five years," Masimirembwa added.
The province says the move is meant to strengthen the party.
Former Vice President Joice Mujuru had led a faction that intended to unseat President Mugabe from power.
The province has also recommended that Miriam Chikukwa and others be suspended for five years.
