Zanu PF attack leaves 4 MDC-T supporters in hospital

Four MDC-T supporters in Harare South, along with a six-week-old child, have been admitted to a private hospital in the city after they were brutally assaulted by suspected Zanu PF activists on Sunday night as political violence continues to escalate in the capital.

MDC-T spokesperson Obert Gutu yesterday confirmed the incident, describing the attack as unprovoked and part of a more elaborate plot to terrorise citizens ahead of the 2018 elections.

Gutu said information at hand indicated that the offensive in Harare South was part of a growing wider plan to unleash a reign of terror in the capital's environs more than a year before a general election.
