Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Opposition MDC Alliance\u2019s co-national vice-chairperson, Job Sikhala, says he tried to effect a citizen arrest on Saturday following the assault and eventual death of an MDC Alliance member Nyasha Mawere.<\/p>\n

The deceased succumbed to injuries sustained from an assault by suspected a ZANU PF mob last month when Chamisa toured Masvingo province to mobilise voters ahead of the 2023 elections.<\/p>\n

Mawere was buried on Saturday in Gutu.<\/p>\n

Sikhala says the case is being investigated by the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP). He said:<\/p>\n

Dear Zimbabweans: Nyasha Zhambe Mawere died after he reported by name the ZPF thugs who murdered him. Sgt Nyoni of Gutu Police Station is the Investigating Officer of the case & has done nothing. I even visited his assailants yesterday 2 effect a citizen arrest & they ran away.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, MDC Alliance has condemned political violence in the country. Said the party:<\/p>\n

The MDC Alliance continues to mourn the sad passing of Nyasha Mawere who passed away last week. He was beaten by ZANU PF thugs & suffered injuries. He died a few days later. We call for an end to the primitive politics of violence against citizens for their political choices.<\/p>\n

The party\u2019s spokesperson, Fadzayi Mahere also castigated political violence in the country. She said:<\/p>\n

We must all take heed of this powerful message by VP @KarenyiKore at the burial of Nyasha Mawere yesterday. Political violence is unacceptable. It must never be tolerated. It is not a crime to demand a better society. Nobody should be beaten for calling for change & sound Govt.<\/p>\n

Election watchdogs have also castigated political violence in the country saying it will jeopardise 2023 elections and by-elections scheduled for 2022.<\/p>\n
