Zanu PF has emerged as the most party that committed majority of violence cases in the country.
This was revealed by the Zimbabwe Peace Project in its monthly report.
"Most of the perpetrators of political violence for January were from Zanu-PF at 82.3 % of the incidences," said ZPP. "MDC-T had 5.7 % of the perpetrators, while ZRP also had incidences they perpetrated at 3.6%."
ZPP said these figures show a slight decrease for Zanu-PF from December which stood at 85% and a very slight increase for MDC-T which had 5% in December.
The organisation said victims of violence for January were mainly in the 40-49 years age group; while the 50-59 years age group came second followed by the 30 -39.
"Like the other months, over 70 years age group had the least number of victims for January," said ZPP.
"The highest number of perpetrators was found in the 40 – 49 years age group, followed by the 30-39 years age group. The 50-59 years age was next followed by those from 20 – 29 years of age. Very few were above 69 years of age. This trend is generally consistent with that of other months."
