In a statement released today, Women’s Coalition of Zimbabwe (WCOZ) urged responsible authorities to treat cases of violence with high priority. The statement was in connection with allegations of violence allegedly committed by Vice President Kembo Mohadi against Tambudzani Mohadi on the 30th of March 2019 in Beitbridge.
The Women’s rights group called upon the judiciary to:
…treat all cases of violence against women and girls with high priority and ensure that justice is served at all times.
WCOZ also reiterated its call for ending violence against women noting that they also have a right to live a life free of violence. The group strongly condemned any form of violence at all levels. In relation to the presence of members of the police force, WCOZ said:
It has also been reported that such shocking acts were committed in the presence of members of the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP). We believe that these are very serious allegations which require urgent investigations and due process of the law.
