They accused Bindura South MP Remigious Matangira of orchestrating their eviction. Although national police spokesperson Senior Assistant Commissioner Charity Charamba said she was unaware of the incident, images sent to NewsDay showed the charred remains of the razed grass structures. Both Kasukuwere and Matangira were unreachable for comment yesterday. — Tapiwa Ziviramukaradzi 2mukaradzi 4mukaradzi 5mukaradzi 6mukaradzi 7mukaradzi 9
