A Villager head in Grange Resettlement Ward 21 Mutasa South was allegedly assaulted by one Danger Chikwariro for having links with the People First project lead by ousted former Vice President Joice Mujuru.
This was reported by Zimbabwe Peace Project through its monthly report of November.
"In another case of political intolerance, on 24 November 2015, a village head in Grange Resettlement Ward 21 Mutasa South, was allegedly physically assaulted by, one, Danger Chikwariro," reads the report. "Both individuals belong to Zanu-PF but different factions. Chikwariro is believed to be rooting for the First Lady while Masukume is in the Mnangangwa camp. It is alleged that Chikwariro punched the victim using a clenched fist after the victim had said Mnangagwa would make a better leader than the First Lady Grasce Mugabe."
