Police target Zinasu as crackdown on constitutional amendment critics intensifies

The Zimbabwe Constitutional Movement (Zicomo) has strongly condemned a police raid on the Zimbabwe National Students Union (Zinasu) offices in Harare, describing the operation as a blatant attempt to criminalise student activism.

The raid, which took place on Wednesday, was reportedly carried out by officers from the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) Law and Order Section. According to Zicomo, the officers left a handwritten note ordering Zinasu president Liberty Hamauswa to report to the police.
