Mugabe and his band of thugs continue to step up pressure on the opposition, resorting to even more violence. Opposition MDC spokesman Nelson Chamisa was held and beaten at the airport according to reports.
"He was badly beaten this morning whilst he was on his way to the airport by security agents," said Bango, a spokesman for MDC leader Morgan Tsvangirai.It sounds like Mugabe has run out of options and can only resort to more violence to maintain his grip.
"Chamisa was due to be attending an EU-ACP meeting in Brussels. The security agents have taken his passport, laptop and his luggage. One of his eyes has been badly injured.
"It's really bad. His head has been severely injured".
Elphus Mukonoweshuro, secretary for foreign affairs within the MDC, confirmed the incident.
"Chamisa has suffered serious head injuries after being attacked by security the agents in the morning," he said.
