MLF WELCOMES DECISION BY SA TO PROSECUTE ZIM HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLETERS (David Magagula)

We salute the just and human decision by a South African Judge to prosecute human rights abusers from Zimbabwe government once they set foot in South Africa. We are pleased that at least our people(Mthwakazians) now have somewhere to report and seek protection from the colonial Zimbabwean government of Robert Mugabe. We have information and records of our people who have been "stolen" from South Africa and shot in Zimbabwe.Zimbabwean intelligence operatives enter South Africa and force those they are looking for into their vehicles and take them for killing in Zimbabwean killing fields.As an organisation we have reported some of these cases but nothing has improved.The Zimbabwean police and intelligence simply shoot those unfortunate and claim they had been trying to escape.A case in point is that of Dipsloot guys who were stollen and short at their home area of Tsholotsho. Orders to shoot on sight have been given to deal with political leaders from Mthwakazi and the excuse of trying to escape has been given as the sole reason for such shootings. We urge all SADC member states to emulate South Africa so that the Human Rights abuses by Mugabe and his government stops.It is high time human rights were protected.
