MDC-T activists who were brutalised in Budiriro Sunday afternoon have had salt added to their wounds after the ZANU PF controlled police manufactured a story against them that they attacked ZANU PF and with blood gushing from their wounds, their own Spokesman Obert Gutu, now stands accused of turning a blind eye to their plight on the day of the attack.
Mr Gutu ignored submissions from witnesses of the attack and when presented with information on the very day, he to date has not acted to sufficiently support the tortured activists four of whom are awaiting trial on trumped up chargers, despite the seriousness of their plight.

One of the brutalised activists is Johana (pictured) who was attacked on Sunday. Jail awaits her as soon as she can be taken to court. But the Zanu PF victims the state media has claimed that MDC youths beat are nowhere to be seen.
Six of the victims instead of the attakers were arrested on the very day. The attack saw a man bludgeoned with a metal object in full view of the Budiriro MP Costa Machingauta.
The rest, four MDC-T supporters yesterday appeared in court on allegations of assaulting Zanu-PF supporters in Harare on Sunday. Amos Mudondo (32), Doesntmatter Mawana (32) and Trust Muchena (32) appeared before Mbare magistrate Ms Anita Tshuma facing assault charges, while their accomplice Malvin Tinarwo (32) appeared in court on Monday. Mudondo, Mawana and Muchena were represented by Mr Obey Shava and lodged complaints against the police.
“My clients were beaten up by Zanu-PF youths, abducted and (bundled) into a Nissan Sunny vehicle before being taken to Budiriro 2 Police Station,” said Mr Shava.
“The youths ordered the police to open a docket against the accused and they complied despite suffering from fresh bleeding wounds.
“The accused complain that they were denied equal rights to protection enshrined in the Constitution and access to treatment.”
Prosecutor Mr Fanuel Madanire has since opposed bail. Ms Tshuma will make a ruling on the bail application today.
The State claims that on Sunday, the four MDC-T supporters – who were clad in their party regalia – approached the complainant who was leaving the Zanu-PF offices located at an open space near the shopping centre.
The report claims they started accusing the complainant and his fellow Zanu-PF supporters of setting up their offices in the wrong place. An argument ensued and Muchena allegedly struck the complainant with an axe on his left hand thumb, causing a deep cut.
It continues, “the gang later approached another complainant who was coming from the same shopping centre. They ordered her to chant an MDC-T slogan but she refused which did not go down well with the group who started assaulting her.
“The MDC-T supporters allegedly punched her on the shoulders until she fell and stamped her on the chest, causing injuries.”
But on Sunday ZimEye.com readers who witnessed the attack in full view reveal the MDC-T activists were attacked by ZANU PF activists in full view of the public and all this was during a meeting with the Budiriro MP. A ZimEye correspondent shortly after the attack supplied this information to Mr Obert Gutu seeking corroboration, who only responded via text message saying, “which publication do you report?” and since Sunday evening to date, no effort has been seen from his desk to gather the witness evidence which vital for the courts to rule on the bail application.
