PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa has been challenged to show seriousness and ensure that all security forces personnel involved in the killing of six people and injuring another 35 on August 1, 2018, are prosecuted.
On that day, security forces fired on Harare residents in the central business district following post-election protests on the delay by the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) in announcing presidential poll results.
Mnangagwa later appointed the Kgalema Motlanthe Commission of Inquiry, which found that six people died and 35 others were injured by state security forces.
Motlanthe is a former president of South Africa.
However, three years later, Mnangagwa has not implemented the commission’s recommendations, including holding to account members of the security forces responsible for abuses and compensating the families of those killed or who lost property.
