Police on Sunday arrested MDC-T Member of Parliament for Highfield East constituency, Eric Murai and 16 party supporters for holding an unsanctioned meeting and for violence which happened at Hopely farm last week.
Ironically hoards of armed Zanu PF supporters thronged the MDC-T Hopely rally on Sunday last week and brutalised MDC-T supporters.
Instead of arresting the intruders, (Zanu PF supporters) the police on Sunday pounced on MDT-T supporters who were holding a rally in the same area and arrested them for contravening Chapter 37 of the Criminal Law Codification and Reform Act.
National Police Spokesperson, Senior Assistant Commissioner Charity Charamba told the state media that Murai was arrested at Hopely farm together with 16 other MDC-T supporters for holding an unlawful public gathering to promote public violence and breach of peace.
The meeting was attended by more than 2000 MDC-T supporters.
