Zimbabwe police arrest civic rights group leader
Zimbabwe police arrested the leader of civic rights group Nation Constitutional Assembly (NCA) yesterday, his lawyer said.
Lovemore Madhuku, last week organised a march to protest against a proposed law that would bar foreign human rights groups and block foreign funding for local bodies.
“They (police) have not advised him of the charges ... but he suspects it is to do with the demonstration last week,” Muchadehama told Reuters. President Robert Mugabe’s government accuses some non-governmental organisations (NGOs) of working with Western nations to undermine his rule.
Mugabe has said the proposed law would help rationalise the NGO sector which he says has been used as a conduit for foreign interference in Zimbabwe’s internal affairs.
