Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>A truck was burnt at Luyengo in the early morning hours on Thursday after the police brutalized protestors in Mbabane merely for protesting in support of incarcerated pro-democracy Members of Parliament(MPs) Bacede Mabuza and Mthandeni Dube.<\/p>\n

It has been disclosed that attack on the peaceful pro-democracy protestors was a well-planned State machinery as per an operation order prepared by Mswati\u2019s police and subsequently exposed on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The burning of the truck was confirmed by Sikhumbuzo Dlamini, a public transport worker who services Luyengo and Manzini.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s true, we saw the burnt truck in the morning an it\u2019s there,\u201d said the public transport worker.<\/p>\n

Phindile Vilakati, the police Spokesperson had not responded at the time of compiling this report.<\/p>\n

On another note, the Commander of the Swaziland International Solidarity Forces(SISF) when speaking to this publication on Wednesday night said even though they had a list of people they were targeting, they were now working under pressure to attack police officers to send a message after the State brutality on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Last week, the Solidarity Forces invaded the house of Lubulini Station Commander Bheka Mabuza,a dramatic shoot-out with the police subsequently erupted after the forces forced entry into the house at Lubulini Police Camp.<\/p>\n

\u201cI suggest that you wait for my call because as we speak the team is on the ground monitoring one of the targets,we will update you once we hit. I told the team that if they are still conducting surveillance on specific targets, they must at least invade any home of a police officer and kill everything there so that we can retaliate in response to what happened today(yesterday),\u201d said the Commander.<\/p>\n

King Mswati\u2019s police kidnapped protestors including women on Wednesday, forced them into a truck, the protestors were later dumped at Mvutshini after being heavily assaulted.<\/p>\n

It is alleged that the King, through his security forces has killed dozens of civilians since the political unrest started last year.<\/p>\n
