By Own Correspondent|  The MDC T faction led by Dr Thokozani Khupe is accusing the MDC Alliance of politically motivated violence following the assault of one of its members in Braeside, Harare.

The assault case was reported today (Tuesday) under RRB 3579025 by one Tawanda Mutize from the MDC T led by Dr Khupe.

MDC T Spokesperson Linda Masarira confirmed the development alleging that Mutize suffered bruises after he was attacked by “nerrorists” meaning people who support MDC Alliance President, Nelson Chamisa.

” They were told that this is a Murisi Zwizwai territory and noone else is allowed to campaign in Braeside,” said Masarira adding that she was campaigning with a team of 36 people.

“We split into groups of 3 people and six in one street. I was in the other street when this happened,” she said.

“Yesterday we put posters at Braeside shops and today when we came back to finish our campaign in Braeside 3, they had been pulled down.”

Poseidon Tsautsau, who was with Mutize when he was assaulted said his colleague was assaulted by MDC Alliance supporters who confirmed that only Zwizwai should be allowed to campaign in the area.

“The people that assaulted him said only Zwizwai was allowed to campaign in Braeside and they attacked him using fists,” he said.
