Zimbabwe Peace Project has reported that Zanu PF activists in Guruve
South allegedly banned the Joice Mujuru led National People's Party
members from wearing their party regalia and threatened to assault them
if ever they are seen wearing it.
ZPP said Zanu PF village heads, White Gangarahwe, Wisdom Motsi and Talkmore Katumba forced an NPP activist Constain Ngwena to surrender NPP regalia at Gangarahwe village ward 8 in Guruve South.
"They ordered Ngwena to surrender all T/shirts, which belonged to NPP led by Joyce Mujuru. They also threatened to assault Ngwena if they ever saw him wearing opposition party regalia in the village," said ZPP.
Meanwhile a group of Zanu PF youths who reside in Barrowsheet suburb, Goromonzi South allegedly assaulted four MDC-T supporters for wearing MDC-T party regalia.
"It is alleged that a Zanu PF youth group led by Maphios Makahamadze approached the four who were coming from an MDC-T rally held at Spar shopping centre. The MDC-T supporters were ordered to remove their party regalia but they resisted," said ZPP.
"The four were assaulted resulting in their clothes being torn. One of the victims identified as Cleopatra Makoni ran away and called for backup and within minutes other MDC-T supporters intervened and rescued their colleagues. The incident was not reported to the police thus no arrests were made."
