100 Anti-riot Police Officers Deployed To Avenues Clinic - Report

The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has deployed an anti-riot unit at Avenues Clinic to stop Dr Peter Magombeyi from leaving the hospital for South Africa to seek further medical care.

The Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights lawyers say about 100 anti-riot police officers have been deployed at the hospital.

This is in contempt of High Court judge Justice Happias Zhou who ruled that Dr Magombeyi should be allowed to leave for South Africa.

Below is a screenshot showing the terms of the court order issued today interdicting ZRP from directly or indirectly preventing Dr Magombeyi from travelling to South Africa. It reads in part:

The respondents or any person or officer acting through them or on their behalf be and are hereby interdicted from preventing directly or indirectly, Peter Gabriel Magombeyi from leaving Zimbabwe for purposes of accessing medical services in the Republic of South Africa.
