Forty-four Zimbabwe National Students Union (ZINASU) have been arrested for public violence.
The young activists were arrested at ZESA Training Centre in Harare.
In a statement, police confirmed.
“The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) sets the record straight on the arrest of 44 ZINASU activists at ZESA Training Centre, Belvedere, Harare on 24th July 2024.
“The Police were only called in after violence erupted amongst the ZINASU group.
“The violence led to the destruction of ZESA and State property.
“As a result, Police were called in to come and maintain law and order.
“This is on record and can be confirmed by ZESA officials.
“The ZRP therefore dismisses a statement by human rights lawyers and civic organizations as well as social media postings alleging that it is the police which caused the violence.
“We appeal to civic organizations to verify with Police before issuing statements or raising unsubstantiated allegations.
“The ZRP reiterates that there are laws to be observed in the country and anyone who engages in acts of violence and destruction of property will be brought to book.”
