Opposition leader Nelson Chamisa condemned the abduction and torture of two students from Chinhoyi University of Technology, calling the acts barbaric. The victims, Marlvin Saint Madanda and Lindon Zanga, were reportedly seized by unidentified men while campaigning for the Zimbabwe National Students Union.
The students stated that their assailants, who drove an unmarked grey vehicle, accused them of chanting slogans against the ruling party before torturing them for over twelve hours. They were later discovered in Shamva, approximately 120 kilometers away, with significant injuries.
Chamisa expressed his outrage in a social media post, comparing the current political climate unfavorably to a past era and demanding action from the police and the president. Human rights organization Amnesty International also called for a transparent investigation, emphasizing the need to protect students' fundamental freedoms.
