Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The Workers Committee Secretary at Strauss Logistics, Robert Muwawa, who reportedly went missing on Wednesday, was found in a bush and picked up by good Samaritans.<\/p>\n

The Chairperson of Crisis in Zimbabwe Coalition, Peter Mutasa, who is also the General Secretary for the Zimbabwe Banks and Allied Workers Union (ZIBAWU), said Muwawa \u201cis not too well\u201d.<\/p>\n

Posting on Twitter, before Muwawa was reportedly found, Mutasa said Muwawa was last seen at Strauss Logistics around lunch hour on Wednesday. Wrote Mutasa:<\/p>\n

Robert Muwawa is still missing since Wednesday lunch hour. He was leading a strike at Strauss Logistics as Workers Committee Secretary<\/p>\n

He was last seen at the company at lunch hour. He had received calls from someone called Assistant Inspector Mutema.<\/p>\n

He had reported that Ass Inspector Mutema of Southerton [police] had somehow threatened him about the strike and whether he was at work<\/p>\n

His union [ZHTDU] said his family went to the company but were told by management that the company had reported to the police<\/p>\n

The Zimbabwe Haulage Truck Drivers Union (ZHTDU) is not happy because management indicated to the family that the matter is being handled by an Assistant Inspector Mutema again.<\/p>\n

The family reported on its own a missing person report. Spread the message and help find this person.<\/p>\n

It must never be accepted that workers\u2019 representatives are disappeared for leading a strike<\/p>\n

Zimbabwe should never be turned into a Mafia State, where those in businesses and in politics can use power to silence, abduct, imprison, threaten or torture trade unionists.<\/p>\n

The Zimbabwe Haulage Truck Drivers Union condemned Muwawa\u2019s alleged victimisation, saying workplaces are becoming hazardous places. The union said:<\/p>\n

Drivers across Zimbabwe have vowed to in solidarity with their missing friend Robert Muwawa.<\/p>\n

This is a clear sign that our workplaces are now a potential hazard, yet suffering victimisation We might all end up disappearing one after the other.<\/p>\n

The disappearance of Robert Muwawa has sent a loud and clear message\u2026 We are no longer safe. We call for protection. Help find our missing comrade.<\/p>\n

Getting Robert will never get trucks to move. Drivers only needed assurance that victimisation will fall simple.<\/p>\n
