By Simba Chikanza| Below are the words of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces Commander Valerio Sibanda, declaring that there is no evidence that MDC Alliance youths he labelled “the vanguard”, had weapons in the events that led to the 1 August massacre by members of the military.

7 innocent civilians were killed many who were ZANU PF supporters, under the guise of being MDC protesters during the days when there Zimbabwe Electoral Commission deliberately delayed announcing the presidential election results.

Gen Sibanda said there was just a general belief among the intelligence, and nothing more than a belief.

He went further to pour more thick sand “jecha” by saying any such evidence can only be futuristic.

Sibanda was testifying before the Motlanthe Commission. He said, ” I don’t think there was any hard evidence but there was a general belief among the intelligence within the JOC system that members of the Vanguard have got some weapons. That belief is there and I am sure we will get to know about it…” he said.

The Motlanthe commission comprises mostly foreigners hired under a blanket of secrecy by Emmerson Mnangagwa, and the only locals are directly connected to him. Its founding terms of reference are a conclusion in themselves that it was necessary for the military to open fire on civilians. Already the politician who hired them, Mnangagwa has passed a conclusion that his own opponents, the MDC Alliance party is guilty.

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE COMMISSION, WILL IT ESTABLISH ANY TRUTH?
