"As the figure above shows, most of the perpetrators of political violence for May, as is the case with all other months, were from Zanu-PF at 79% of the perpetrators. This number decreased slightly from the April figure of 83%. Next was Zimbabwe National Army at 9%, then Zimbabwe Republic Police with 4% of the perpetrators, while the MDC-T made up 2% of the recorded perpetrators."
ZPP said as has been the trend in the past few months, the male victims far outnumber the female victims, by more than one and half times.
