US, UK 'fakes police shootings' in Zimbabwe - State media claims

The state media on Sunday reported that the US and UK had a hand in 'false' reports about Zimbabwean police shooting live bullets at protesters during yesterday's NERA countrywide demonstration.

Opposition parties under the National Electoral Reform Agenda held countrywide mass protests on Saturday, which the state media and Zimbabwe Republic Police claim never happened.

Yesterday there were reports of police firing live bullets at protesters in Dzivaresekwa and Kuwadzana suburbs in Harare.

According to the state media, national police spokesperson Chief Superintendent Nyathi on Saturday claimed that there were no countrywide demonstrations.

The law enforcement official disclosed yesterday's shooting claims as "falsehoods".

"Those are complete falsehoods because our officers never fired shots at anyone."

The Sunday Mail reports of two UK spies, Adamson and Birnie, entering the country on the 5th of September "on a mission to review the civil disturbances that occurred in Harare, Bulawayo and Beitbridge in July/August."

Even though the state media and the police claim that #Nerademo never happened, below are short video clips of #NeraDemo in Bulawayo.
