In yet another sign that President Robert Mugabe’s supporters are
resorting to violence to maintain a grip on power, Finance Minister Tendai
Biti fled his Harare offices yesterday after Zanu PF militants stormed the
premises demanding his resignation.
The raid on Biti’s offices, coming days after the arrest of a top aide to
Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai and “subversive” statements by an army
general, has worsened fears that Zimbabwe is back to the anarchy of 2008
when more than 200 MDC supporters were murdered in cold blood after
Tsvangirai defeated Mugabe in contested presidential elections.
