Security guards threaten demo

Members of the Zimbabwe Security Guards' Union (ZISEGU) have threatened to demonstrate against their employers' mother body, Security Association of Zimbabwe (SAZ), which they accused of negotiating in bad faith.

The guards, however, will have to seek clearance at the High Court after the Zimbabwe Republic Police turned down their notice to demonstrate.

ZISEGU secretary-general Philemon Nhema said the union would file papers at the High Court today seeking an interdict barring the police from interfering with their planned demonstration.
