THE United Kingdom’s unexpected move this week to impose sanctions on four Zimbabwean security chiefs for human rights violations – following a series of critical pronouncements in recent months – signifies a major policy shift, diplomatic sources say.
In a move seen in Harare as an unexpected kick in the teeth, the UK, now autonomous to make solo decisions on sanctions after breaking away from the European Union, announced new sanctions, including a travel ban and asset freeze, on State Security minister Owen Ncube, Central Intelligence Organisation director-general Isaac Moyo, Zimbabwe Republic Police commissioner-general Godwin Matanga and retired Lieutenant-General Anselem Sanyatwe, former commander of the Presidential Guard, now Zimbabwe’s ambassador to Tanzania.
