UN Human Rights Office Raises Alarm Over Arrests Of Activists In Zimbabwe

The United Nations Human Rights Office (UN Human Rights) has expressed concern over the arrests of human rights and political activists in Zimbabwe ahead of the 44th Ordinary SADC Summit of Heads of State and Government, scheduled to be held on 17 August 2024 in Harare.

In a statement, the UN Human Rights office has called for the release of all human rights defenders and political activists currently in detention. It said:

We are concerned by reports of arrests, harassment and intimidation of human rights defenders and political activists in the lead-up to the SADC summit.

We call for the immediate release of all those arbitrarily detained and the protection of civic space.

This follows the arrests of several Zimbabwean activists, including Namatai Kwekweza, the recipient of the prestigious Kofi Annan NextGen Democracy Prize in 2023, along with Robson Chere, Samuel Gwenzi, and Vusumuzi Moyo.

The four activists were reportedly removed from a plane at the Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport on 31 July 2024 by state security agents.

They have been charged with disorderly conduct and remain in custody after a magistrate dismissed their bail application.

The arrests of these activists are part of a broader crackdown on dissent by the ZANU PF-led government, with scores of political activists being detained across the country ahead of the upcoming SADC Summit in Harare.

These human rights lawyers should tell the activists not to break the law . Simple . Zim is a law abiding nation and law breakers are arrested without fear or favour .

Demonstrating is legal under the constitution, the criminals are those arresting them.

AS LONG AS THESE THUGS CONTINUE TO BREAK THE LAWS OF THE COUNTRY, THEY WILL BE ARRESTED. WE ARE A SOVEREIGN STATE THEREFORE NOBODY SHOULD DICTATE ON US . GO AND TELL ISRAEL TO STOP THE WAR AND UKRAINE TO PULL OUT OF NATO TO AVOID A THREAT TO RUSSIA. THERE IS A SERIOUS WAR IN SUDAN BUT YOU ZIP YOUR MOUTHS. LET THE PEACE THAT WE ENJOY PESSIST. YOU WANT ZIMBABWE TO BE ANOTHER KENYA AND BANGLADESH, NO .WE KNOW THE UN IS AMERICAN CONTROLLED AND THE REGIME CHANGE AGENDA HASN'T BEEN ABONDED.

Israel & Ukraine are different issues as compared to zim situation. All that's been said is Zim is sliding slow from democracy and constitution that dictates the rights of all individuals beings. Imagine all these people who are being oppressed one day waking up having arms on their door steps, that's the reasons why we're seeing all these wars, their rights have long been taken away from them. They are trying to liberate themselves just like these cdes did.

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM OF SWIMMING TOGETHER IN THE SAME TIDE? PUPPETS ARE TRYING TO MANIPULATE THE SITUATION THEY CAUSED BY ADVOCATING FOR SANCTIONS FOR THEIR SELFISH AGENDAS. WE WILL NEVER FORGET THE ROOT CAUSES OF OUR PROBLEMS. TIME WILL NOT MAKE US FORGET. ITS THE OPPOSITION THAT MUST ACCOUNT FOR ZIMBABWE PROBLEMS NOT THE ZANUPF. WE WILL NEVER BETRAY ZANUPF FOR WRONGS THEY DIDN'T COMMIT. SO DEMOCRACY IS VERY MUCH ALIVE IN ZIMBABWE THAT'S WHY PEOPLE CAN STILL WRITE AND TALK NEGATIVELY ABOUT GVT WITHOUT ANY FEAR. DURING THE SMITH REGIME, SUCH TALK OR PLATFORMS NEVER EXISTED. I WISH YOU HAD EXPERIENCED BOTH SIDES OF THE COIN MAYBE YOUR ASSUMPTIONS COULD BE POSITIVE . WE ARE VERY FREE TODAY, PEOPLE DAYDREAM OF A SECOND COMING, THAT'S NONSENSE. THERE ARE ALSO MISGUIDED MALCONTENTS WHO THINK THE OPPOSITION WILL BRING A DIFFERENT LIFESTYLE ALTOGETHER, THAT'S RUBBISH, NO GVT WILL EVER SPOON FEED ITS CITIZENS. WE WILL CONTINUE TOILING. IMPROVE YOURSELF AND STOP COUNTING WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE. BE PRAGMATIC AND BE ON THE GROUND AND START TO DO SOMETHING POSITIVE. MANY PEOPLE HAVE NOW OPTED TO FARMING AND LIVES HAVE CHANGED WHILE YOU YAWN FOR YANKEES TO TAKEOVER OUR COUNTRY .YESTERDAY CHIREDZI WAS A MISERABLE DRY REGION, BUT TODAY BECAUSE OF DAMS BUILT THERE AND INDIVIDUAL BOREHOLES SUNK, THE AREA IS PRODUCING AWIDE RANGE OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUSTS. THEY ARE FREE FROM HUNGER. THE MIDLANDS HAS BEEN OVERTAKENG BY CHI

Zimbabwe has laws which must be respected at all times. If you commit a crime you will be arrested: it doesn't matter wether you are an activist, opposition member, a Zanu PF member,award winning journalists or you have received international awards.Hazvina basa izvozvo.

The Supreme law of the land, The Constitution allows people to express displeasure with the government by demonstrating. ANY LAW THAT ZANU REPABRIK PORISI USE IS ILLEGAL AND ULTRA VIRES THE CONSTITUTION.

There we go again🤣🤣🤣🤣 The laws of this land ought to be respected. The UN is not a Zimbabwean court of Law. Ukapara mhosva kwa Madzawondora unotongwa ikoko. No one is detained. They were arrested. They're awaiting trial. Since they're flight risks havangabude Vukurai😂
