The 26-year-old Harare West MP was summoned to the ZRP’s Law and Order section on May 23 this year while she was attending the MDC congress in Gweru. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- On the 28th of May, she presented herself in the company of her lawyer, Obey Shava at the Harare Central Police station and was detained in police cells. In a letter to Police Commissioner-General Godwin Matanga and copied to Home Affairs deputy secretary (finance and administration) and civil division of the Attorney-General’s Office, Shava said that his client’s arrest was barbaric and deplorable, directly resulting in her in losing her unborn child as she was two months pregnant. Said Shava: > We contend that the conduct of the police amounts to gross violation of our client’s right to personal liberty and dignity. > It is further a gross violation of the unborn baby’s right to life as enshrined in the Zimbabwe Constitution and various international treaties on human rights. Of the US$120 000, US$40 000 is for pain and suffering, deprivation of personal liberty, violation of human dignity and contumelia, while the US$80 000 is for gross violation of the unborn child’s right to life.
