Police explain what caused violent clashes in Harare CBD yesterday

Members of the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) are being accused by a group of MDC-T youths near Harvest House, who were randomly assaulting passers-by they suspected to be police officers.

A police 0fficer who spoke to The Herald said that the Police Reaction Group went at Harvest House and managed to arrest one person after serious resistance which included stone throwing. Chief police spokesperson Senior Assistant Commissioner Charity Charamba confirmed that the chaos started with the eviction of vendors from Deeds Office. However, MDC-T spokesperson Mr Obert Gutu last night told The Herald that MDC-T youths were disciplined, despite clear facts indicating that the youths engaged in violence were from the party.
