Terrence Mawawa|Those who say violence is part of the Zanu PF culture are absolutely correct.

Zanu PF councillor for ward 32, Chiredzi, Aspect Mashingaidze ran amok and severely assaulted a party youth in the presence of senior ruling party officials last week.

“Mashingaidze suddenly grabbed Taurai Kuzonyei and began to assault him with clenched fists, leaving him unconscious in the process.

Senior party officials folded their arms and watched as Mashingaidze bashed the hapless youth,” ruling party sources in Chiredzi told ZimEye.com yesterday.

Police in Chiredzi said they were waiting for an official report from the supposed complainant.
