Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Six (6) security officers drawn from various State security organs collapsed at different intervals during the Independence Day commemorations parade held at Chinhoyi Stadium on Monday.<\/p>\n

The officers were drawn from the Zimbabwe National Army (ZNA), Airforce of Zimbabwe (AFZ), Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) and Zimbabwe Prisons and Correctional Services (ZPCS).<\/p>\n

The four men and two women were whisked away by paramedics after fainting in the simmering Autumn heat.<\/p>\n

A former ZNA member, who spoke to NewZimbabwe.com on condition of anonymity, suggested that the lack of physical fitness could have contributed to the falling incidents. He said:<\/p>\n

It is very rare to witness a parade recording such a high number of members collapsing for one reason or the other.<\/p>\n

This is clear testimony these guys lack physical fitness, and the training and retraining regime has slackened over the years.<\/p>\n

Chinhoyi Stadium was filled to capacity as surrounding communities such as Alaska and Shackleton also came to commemorate the 42nd independence anniversary.<\/p>\n
