Soldiers in Harare today beat up former ZBC employees who had stormed the state broadcaster’s Pockets Hill head offices in Highlands to demand their retrenchment packages.
Over 500 ZBC employees lost their jobs in August after the infamous July 14 High Court ruling which gave employers the green light to sack workers on three months’ notice.
On Friday over 100 former ZBC employees thronged Pockets hill where they wanted to meet with the management over their retrenchment packages.
Upon arrival the workers were denied entry by members of the Zimbabwe National Army who manned the area.
It was after the group had resisted the orders from the army to retreat that the soldiers beat them up before threatening to shoot them.
One of the workers said,“ we wanted to hear from the management when they were going to give us our retrenchment money because since we were dismissed there has not been any word from them”.
ZBC spokesperson Gladman Bandama was not available for comment.
