Chinese National Filmed Torturing Local Miners In Bindura
8 months agoTue, 16 Jul 2024 06:21:38 GMT
In a disturbing incident that occurred recently, a Chinese national, whose identity has not been confirmed, was filmed allegedly torturing Zimbabwean workers at Makanga Mine in Bindura, Mashonaland Central Province.
According to NewZimbabwe.com, the Chinese national, who is a manager at the mine, is seen in the video tying up the Zimbabwean workers on a loader bucket and raising them in the air.
The manager is then reported to have whipped the workers in the presence of their colleagues, who apparently stood by and watched the abuse unfold.
The Chinese national is said to have carried out this alleged torture over claims that the Zimbabwean workers had stolen an unspecified amount of diesel from the mine. A statement accompanying the video reads:
The incident is a stark reminder of the exploitation and mistreatment of Zimbabwean workers by foreign investors, and the government’s failure to protect its citizens. We urge all citizens to share the video and join us in demanding justice for the affected worker.
The Zimbabwe Miners Federation (ZMF) condemned the incident, describing it as “appalling, vile, inhumane and savage.”
ZMF, which represents miners across the country, urged the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP), to arrest the Chinese national. It said:
This barbaric act is a blatant violation of the Constitution of Zimbabwe, which guarantees the right to personal security and freedom from torture or cruel, inhumane or degrading treatment or punishment.
We will not stand idly while our members are subjected to such egregious abuse. ZMF vehemently condemns this despicable act and demands immediate arrest and prosecution of the Chinese boss responsible, a thorough investigation into the mine’s labour practices and swift action against any violations.
Over the years, there have been recurring reports of Zimbabwean workers facing abuse at the hands of their Chinese employers, often with little consequence.
In one recent incident in May 2024, a 58-year-old Chinese miner named Cai Yulong allegedly shot and killed a man from Chief Njelele in Gokwe after the victim and his colleague encroached into Cai’s mining claim in Zhombe, Midlands Province. Cai also reportedly injured the victim’s colleague during the incident.
Just last month, a 51-year-old Chinese national was arraigned before the Gweru Magistrates’ Court on allegations of raping and impregnating a 17-year-old local girl.

The Chinese were wrong too, they don't follow the labor act, we have laws in the labor industry, everyone must abide by the law of this land. The Chinese must stop abusing our people. After all they pay pathetic wages to their workers. Paying poor wages is stealing from the workers. The Black employers are also joining this evil behavior of stealing money from their employees. So sad

@ me. you are just nothing but a sad sad excuse of a human being who spends their pathetic life defending thieves under the pretext of democracy...If they were so innocent why didn't their coworkers stand up for them... Why did they not hand themselves over to the police ??..They committed a dastardly crime because of sheer hubris and avarice...I for a fact know they asked to be whipped because of fear of going to the police...That Chinese man might have lost millions due to the thieving antics of those malcontents who just decided to play mine owner for the day....If you find yourself backing a thief then clearly you are mentally r.e.t.ar.d.ed and deserve to be checked into a semi decent mental institution...

@ anonymous I know the behavior of these semi skilled mine workers...All they do is steal and when you catch them they beg and plead for lesser punishment...I am 80% sure that they were given two options: to be whipped or to be taken to the police...I am pretty sure they chose the former for they knew what they had done was wrong....Those workers were thieves that chose the easy way out whom the media are now trying to portray as some sort of victims of injustice....
I am not cruel by any stretch of the imagination but am a decent human being...😂😂😂 puppet?? you got jokes Zimbabwe is a sovereign nation who is charting their own course in the shark infested waters and we have no masters...The Chinese are our friends who over the years have given us numerous l.o.a.n.s and built infrastructure.. Only those who have Sinophobia see the Chinese as racist or having sinister motives unlike the Western devils who have actively ruined Zimbabwe time and time again. From the time of slave trade , colonialism and who can forget their nefarious structural adjustment plans which nearly ruined this fine nation....The Chinese do not loot anything as they offer a fair and competitive price for everything that they buy... Furthermore, only a blind worm would not notice all the infrastructural and technological advancements being spearheaded by our Chinese friends... Erudite out

The operator of the front-end loader was no Chinese, the one who tied the poor man to the bucket was no Chinese and the one who took the video was no Chinese. In this case lets not blame the Chinese but ourselves, we tolerate such crap.These Chinese are adopted to their slavery labour laws from their country and bring them here. Zimbabweans working for them have no choice but to comply,inhamo yekushaikwa kwemabasa inoita zvidaro. We need to wake up and blame those who put us in this situation in the first place.

First they portray known dissidents and terrorists as "victims of genocide" now they claim actual thieves who steal from friendly Chinese businessman ,whose only crime is to give these unemployable psychopaths a job as victims of Chinese brutality...The level of Sinophobia is appalling please if you decide to purloin diesel in order to sustain your substance addiction you should not be surprised if you get whipped...Death to thieves and scoundrels who believe that their entitlement complex is a license to do anything they want...I am sure those workers receive generous salaries yet they continue to steal...Beat them please Mr Chinese man until they know that pilfering is a crime worthy of the whip...

Years ago, demos were effective because people were forced not to go to work. Buses were stopped and stoned, some burnt. Kombies were forced to park. That's why it was effective with this nation of cowards.

These Chinese are allowed into the country with the promise of immunity from prosecution. They enjoy the same immunity with the thief Chivhayo because they are protected by the thief-in-chief who is their partner. Zimbabweans must learn to fight back. It must be risky business to abuse Zimbabweans. After all, only one Zimbabwean family benefits from the minerals.

A Chinese national commits the abuse, but ZMF statement says foreign investors are perpertrators? I though Chinese nationals were considered local, that's why the Returning Resident at RGM Airport was written in Chinese.

EXPLOITATION FROM ANY QUARTER MUST BE CONDEMNED . HUMAN ABUSE SHOULD NEVER BE TOLERATED. ZIMBABWEANS MUST LEARN TO DEFEND EACH OTHER AGAINST ANY ABUSE INCURRED ON THEM BY FOREIGN CITIZENS. INSTANT JUSTICE WILL TEACH THEM TO RESPECT US. WE ARE THE VANGUARD OF OUR REVOLUTION AND SHOULD ACT ACCORDINGLY WHEN THE SITUATION DEMANDS OUR SERVICE. OUR ANCESTORS WERE BULLIED BY THE BRITISH BUT CORRECTED THE ABUSE BY TAKING THE AK47 AND SLAUGHTERED THE BASTARDS. SURELY THE CHINESE HELPED US WIN THE WAR BY PROVIDING US WITH ARMS AND MORAL SUPPORT BUT THATS NOT A LICENSE TO SUBJUGATE US,NO. WE ARE ALL EQUAL HUMAN BEINGS EVEN THOUGH OUR FRIENDS NAVE ROUND HEADS AND FACES, WE ARE EQUAL.

Your answer is to commit a crime to answer a crime? You go to prison if you murder someone. What value is that to them? Your head is still stuck in the pre 1980s. You might have got away with it then. How is that a relevant solution now? The only value in your statement is people should defend others from abuse. Everything else you have written, just rabid nonsense.

I understand China is sending her class D prisoners to take up managerial and supervisory in Zim mines... what would you expect from those jail birds other than torture and violence. Its all horror when a dangerous prisoner becomes the boss of a mine, it's just like Mr Kokroch heading the Gugurahundi hearings. 🙄

Chinese are generally good people. If what is written in this article is true then authorities will not hesitate to step in with view to apprehend the culprit. Such unruly behaviour belong to the colonial era and can not tolerated in present Zimbabwe where citizens are enjoying independence for a record 44 years....... Mukoma Oncemore out......
