MDC Alliance deputy treasurer-general and Kuwadzana East MP, Charlton Hwende has been arrested.
Hwende had been in Namibia since the violent #ShutDown protests of 14 – 17 January. But on arrival at the Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport on Tuesday morning, he found the place crawling with law enforcement agents who quickly nabbed him.
Hwende’s arrest was revealed by MDC presidential spokesperson Nkululeko Sibanda on Twitter. Sibanda wrote:
Mnangagwa continues the abuse of human rights with the arrest of Hon MP Hwende of the MDC led by President Chamisa. President Chamisa won the last Presidential election before Mnangagwa working with ZEC rigged the results.
