By A Correspondent| Below is a letter of a request made by the chairman of the 1 August violence Commission, Kgalema Motlanthe to MDC President Nelson Chamisa.

In the letter, Motlanthe says the “request” is due to the fact that Chamisa has been named as having incited violence. But Motlanthe has not made a similar request for his boss, Emmerson Mnangagwa and deputy Constantino Chiwenga who have been named for making clear declarations of intent to commit violence in order to reinstall Mnangagwa to state house.
