Farai Dziva|MDC deputy president, Obert Chaurura Gutu has stunned all and sundry by justifying police brutality against hapless civilians.

Gutu claimed police brutality against MDC Alliance supporters was necessary since they were dealing with a violent organisation.

“What do you expect the Police to do when they’re dealing with a renegade, violent, terrorist organisation? Do you expect the Police to fold their arms & watch as violent hooligans run amok? Come on! Give us a break,” tweeted Gutu.

On Wednesday police officers brutally assaulted opposition members and ordinary citizens before MDC leader Nelson Chamisa’s Hope of The Nation Address.
