Riot Police Disperse War Veterans With Teargas And Water Cannons
Police say the meeting was not sanctioned. In the morning, the war veterans who could be seen trekking down Rekayi Tangwena Avenue, were barred from entering the venue.
The disgruntled war veterans were bitter that they were being barred by police.
The situation remained tense for some time and later on deteriorated as police unleashed water cannons and tear smoke on the war veterans.
Police say the meeting was unsanctioned and they had to disperse the war veterans by using minimum force. Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association chairman and Minister Chris Mutsvangwa, however, is crying foul saying the use of force by police on unarmed war veterans was uncalled for.
“The war veterans are going to court to challenge what they view as violation of their constitutional right to hold meetings,” said Mutsvangwa. – Source-bulawayo24
