By Own Correspondent| ZEC Commissioner Netsai Mushonga has urged those who allege that there was an assassination attempt on ZEC Chairperson Justice Priscilla Chigumba to produce video evidence of their allegations.

Commissioner Mushonga’s statements come in the wake of allegations that there was an attempt at Justice Chigumba’s life at Sam Levy Village in Harare where she was heckled by unknown assailants in a development which saw her lose her handbag and earnings.

Commissioner Mushonga however dismissed the story as fake news challenging those who originated the story to substantiate their claims by providing video evidence.

Said Commissioner Mushonga:
“Assassination attempt is fake news. I challenge the originators of the story to produce a video to their story. A ten minute attack will have minimum 10 videos captured by the public…..”

According to the story, the ZEC Chairperson survived an assasination attempt when an unruly mob believed to be opposition supporters heckled her at an affluent Western suburb’s Sam Levy’s Village shopping centre where she had gone for a massage.

Her bodyguards were overpowered by a hostile crowd of thugs wielding weapons and shouting threats of assasination and obscenities at the helpless judge.

Her bodyguards had to seek help from ZRP Borrowdale whose Reaction team swiftly arrived and dispersed the mob.

A visibly shaken Chigumba was quickly whisked away in her brand new SUV.
