President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s long time business partner Peter Hain has castigated the Harare authorities for heavy handed treatment of MDC Alliance principal Tendai Biti.

In a Twitter message Hain attacked Mnangagwa for failing to fulfil his promise of a new Zimbabwe.

“Treatment of Tendai Biti is terrible and oppressive: with army killings last week and police forced dispersal of journalists at MDC press conference Emmerson Mnangagwa is not fulfilling his promise of the new Zimbabwe era.”

Hain has also denied having a business relationship with
Mnangagwa although it is understand he is involved in some business dealings with Mnangagwa
through South African businessman Zunaid Moti who owns the Moti Group.

Mnangagwa, his deputy Constantino Chiwenga and the Zimbabwe
Defence Forces are believed to have helped the Moti Group to set up the African Chrome

Fields (ACF) in the Midlands Province.
