By Own Correspondent| The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) boss Justice Priscilla Chigumba has revealed that the elections body was not investigating allegations that police officers were forced to cast their votes in front of their commanders arguing that no one had formally lodged a complaint on the issue.

Chigumba insisted that since nothing untoward happened at Ross  Camp in Bulawayo, her organisation would not investigate the matter.

In an interview with a local publication, Chigumba said:

“…The acting chief elections officer did not deny that postal voting was underway, but denied that the commission had set up polling stations for that purpose.

The law does not envisage the setting-up of polling stations for postal voting, but that applicants exercise their right in secrecy before sealing their ballots in provided envelopes and returning same to the chief elections officer by a prescribed date.

… The videos have already been dismissed as fake by the police and this information was also given to observers by Senior Assistant Commissioner Erasmus Makodza during the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission’s briefing to local and international observers on its state of preparedness.

No official complaint has also been received from aggrieved persons to date and, therefore, there is nothing to investigate at this moment.”-Standard.
