Posting on Twitter, the US Embassy said:<\/p>\n

\n

UN experts said Zim\u2019s \u201cTargeting peaceful dissidents\u2026is a serious violation of human rights law\u201d and recommended \u201cThe charges against the three women should be dropped.\u201d Instead, 3 victims of abduction, torture, and sexual violence are jailed while their captors remain free.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The trio was arrested on the 13th of May 2020 during a flash hunger protest in Warren Park. They allege that they were abducted from police custody and were tortured and sexually assaulted the whole night before being dumped in Bindura.<\/p>\n
