(SomaliNet) As many as 200 activists were arrested by Police in Zimbabwe after the cops raided the headquarters of the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) in capital city Harare.
Though the MDC's Nelson Chamisa said police had no search warrant, the activists were taken away in police vans. Mr Chamisa told reporters that the meeting was held in party offices to discuss civil issues and insisted the MDC was doing nothing illegal.

The arrests came a day after police extended a ban on political rallies. |
