Police Threaten to Shoot Lawyers for Arrested Activists

Police Threaten to Shoot Lawyers for Arrested Activists - Police in Tsholotsho have continued to deny lawyers access to two officials from the ZimRights civic group, who were arrested in this area of Matabeleland North on Monday. Regional coordinator Florence Ndlovu, and paralegal officer Walter Dube, have not been seen since they were taken by police at a roadblock set up 'to specifically arrest' them. They had been banned from holding an anti torture workshop at Tshino Business centre, even though they had a court order giving them permission. [All Africa : Zimbabwe]
