The Zimbabwe Republic Police summoned MDC youth assembly vice-chairperson, Cecilia Chimbiri on Thursday, less than a day before the anticipated demonstration slatted for 16 Agust 2019.
The arrest was confirmed by the organ’s spokesperson, Stephen Sarkozy Chuma. He said that Chimbiri will be accompanied by a lawyer from the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights, Jeremiah Bamu.
Meanwhile, Chuma declared that his party will remain resolute in the midst of the arrest of its members, which he characterised as political persecution.

Even as the constitutional liberties of the arrested (victims) and the arresters (predators) match squarely, what matters at the end of the day is the impression created by all these demeaning maneuvers on the local, continental and international landscape. Freedom of expression is a historical category with consequences abounding for those who dare resist its course. God bless.
