Mujuru crushed through hi-tech

VICE-PRESIDENT Joice Mujuru's political career was wrecked through a well-coordinated and systematic operation of communication surveillance and recordings, including voice cloning and video morphing using high-tech gadgets.
Documents seen by the Zimbabwe Independent this week plucked out of a top secret Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO) report on recordings of senior government officials suggest Mujuru - who is not technology-savvy - is a victim of a covert listening operation and video recording by a clique within the CIO sympathetic to her rival, Justice minister Emmerson Mnangagwa and First Lady Grace Mugabe.
"Mujuru was destroyed through an operation of intense communication surveillance and recordings, including voice cloning and video morphing using high-tech equipment," an experienced CIO officer said provided the documents.
"Her communications were monitored 24/7; her calls, messages and movements were watched. But it was the recording done at her home by the First Lady's agent which was the turning point as it provided decisive audio-visual evidence that she is personally against her.
All the other materials available were not directly incriminating.
"The agent (who is Grace's aide) recorded Mujuru through a micro-digital video recorder with a hidden camera which records in a discreet and effective way while he was sitting in front of her at her house in Chisipite. Hidden micro cameras are embedded in items like watches, pens and necklaces etc."
The Independent indicated months ago although it was difficult to prove it then that Grace did not like Mujuru because there was some recordings in which she said if she caught saying if she takes over from Mugabe she would seize the farms the First Lady is grabbing in Mazowe and give them to villagers there.
Grace this week helped to confirm the issue - widely known in media circles - that she had some recordings on Mujuru even though it appears they were obtained unconstitutionality and illegally as there was no court order authorising them.<
