CIO agents refuse to reform

Three members of the notorious Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO) this
afternoon severely assaulted a mechanic, Bornface Mvemve as he was
test-driving an MDC vehicle in Harare.

The mechanic, Mvemve (32) said the incident took place just after the
round-about in Msasa as he was driving towards the city centre. Narrating
the incident, Bornface said as he was driving, a grey Nissan Hardbody double
cab with no number plates overtook him and suddenly blocked his way.

Three men in black suits, including the driver, disembarked. Two of the men
who were drinking beer began to assault the mechanic and poured beer all
over him. After that they smashed both the front and the rear windscreens of
the party vehicle. They then hurriedly left the scene.

Bornface, injured on his neck and collar bone and was immediately rushed to
a city hospital where he is receiving treatment.

The CIO and other security agents are refusing to reform and have constantly
attacked MDC members at the instigation of ZANU (PF). Last week, the police
arrested MDC shop assistants manning the party regalia shop at Harvest House
following clashes with vendors.

MDC is also concerned with the continued renewal of service chiefs’
contracts as they have been partisan towards ZANU (PF) in the discharge of
their duties. Two of the culprits, Defence Forces Commander Constantine
Chiwenga and Police Chief Augustine Chihuri’s contracts are expiring next
month.
