Sanctions are not “economic” sanctions against the country of Zimbabwe, but against those individuals in ZANU PF who continue to be involved in the slow but sure genocide taking place, in the looting of the Reserve bank resulting in the decline of the Zimbabwean economy.

Commissioner Zimondi of the Zimbabwe Prison Service, tells his subordinates to find food donations for the prisoners at Harare Central Prison, because “the government has no resources”. The prisoners are dying of starvation and illness but the so called government can still afford to buy new Mercedes Benz’s for its ministers, it can afford to buy numerous Isuzu and CAM trucks, which have been, and still are used to carry ZANU PF thugs to beat up MDC members and officials.

How many ZANU PF thugs and officials, CIO, Police or Army have been indicted for the over 300 (known) brutal murders of MDC members last year? NONE! And the Commissioner of Police Augustine Chihuri has the temerity to publicly say that all murder dockets being investigated from the Political violence campaign in 2008 must be shelved.

Why have no ZANU PF members been prosecuted, or at the very least, been made to return goods looted from MDC members last year? Why are MDC members now being arrested and detained for retributive violence?

The answers are quite clear – justice is still selective, and there is still NO RULE OF LAW.

Until the RULE OF LAW is restored why should any country in SADC or the world pour money into Zimbabwe? If they do, then they are complicit once again with a genodical bunch of despots. ZANU PF has no intention of sharing power, no intention of giving a transitional power sharing government a chance.

Nothing has changed! People with “degrees in violence” know no other way.

Keep the targeted sanctions on those individuals who have failed to keep to the Global Political Agreement.

Human Rights Activist, Zimbabwe.
