A London based 23 year old Zimbabwean woman has begun turning the heat on police officers of all ranks daily, on issues of discrimination and fair treatment of citizens. If she had been in her home country, Cynthia Masiyiwa (pictured-right)could never had received such a chance to talk to for instance Commissioner Augustine Chihuri, let alone challenge him on his work – the London based Cynthia appeared on international BBC 1  TV quizzing London’s Met Police Commissioner Hogan Howe.

Cynthia’s job at the Citizens UK NGO, which she rose through the ranks doing, is to check on the police if they are treating suspects fairly on London’s streets, while also pulling young adults from street life into employment.
Years before the British police force has been blamed for numerous cases of alleged racism.
In the televised BBC discussion on the state of London’s streets, PC Howe’s face turned rigid and pale when Cynthia opened her mouth after other participants had threatened they would fry the police boss on police alleged abuses which began in the 1960s.
“The police must be held accountable for their actions on people and that is what we are here for,” said Cynthia in agreement with the others.
But we should not just attack the police every time, but also praise them, however, said Cynthia (who had begun on a fiery note) to the sudden relief of the Commissioner. She continued saying there are many “good things that police are actually doing that are not coming out. we’ve done so much work with Citizens UK and engaging police and across London we’ve got 600 city safe havens, a place where young people can run, or anybody in immediate danger can run to,” she said.
