Zimbabwe Police Identify Chinese National Accused Of Torturing Local Mine Workers

Police have identified the Chinese national who was recently filmed allegedly torturing Zimbabwean workers at the Makanga Mine in Bindura, Mashonaland Central Province.

The disturbing video footage showed the Chinese manager at the mine tying up the Zimbabwean workers and suspending them in the air using a frontend loader.

The Chinese national is then said to have whipped the workers, accusing them of stealing an unspecified amount of diesel from the mine.

In a statement released on Wednesday, 17 July, the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP), confirmed that both the suspects and the complainants have been identified, and a thorough investigation is now underway to establish the full details of what transpired. Police said:

Reference is made to a video which went viral on social media platforms depicting two handcuffed complainants being lifted by a frontend loader at the instigation of two suspects at Makanga Mine, Hereford Farm, Bindura.

The ZRP confirms that the suspects and complainants have been identified in connection with the incident which occurred on 13/07/24. Investigations are in progress.

In the wake of the disturbing incident at the Makanga Mine, the Zimbabwe Miners Federation (ZMF), which represents miners across the country, has strongly condemned the alleged actions of the Chinese national.

The ZMF described the incident as “appalling, vile, inhumane and savage” and has called for the immediate arrest of the Chinese manager.

This incident has further reinforced a common perception among many ordinary Zimbabweans that the Chinese nationals operating in the country are often perceived to be above the law.

There is a widespread belief that the Chinese can violate the laws of Zimbabwe and infringe on the human rights of the local population with impunity.

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.

Results of so called "Look east policy" It has brought to our attention that these Chinese are a menace to all civilised nations where they go. Let's hope we won't have a China city there in zimbabwe otherwise mopera nekudyiwa.Ahiii

This Chinese and others like him should be deported without any delay. If one of us goes to China and behave like that they would kill him. Enough is enough. Taneta

I think the best way we should treat arrests these Chinese is to use the laws applied by lawmakers of countries of origin, in China if you do any unlawful, act, you are eliminated, got ridden of, killed to be specific, while this side we treat them holier,

WE HAVE PLENTY OF RICH LEARNED ZIMBABWEANS IN THE DIASPORA .IF THIS CLASS OF OUR NATIONALS COULD BE GIVEN BETTER INCENTIVES THEY COULD COME BACK HOME AND BE BETTER INVESTORS. THEY SHOULD SURELY FIT IN EVERY ASPECT OF OUR ECONOMY. A LOCAL POLICY OF LOOK LOCAL MUST BE INITIATED. YES LOOK LOCAL.

True, local is best. The learned diasporans will want return on their investment, not conversion of their investment into local currency. That will be the biggest roadblock.
