Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>OPPOSITION Citizens Coalition for Change leader Nelson Chamisa has condemned the politically motivated murder of his supporter, Tinashe Chitsunge on Wednesday while calling on the police to do its job.<\/p>\n

Police have so far arrested ten people in connection with the murder of Chitsunge who was a CCC party member in Glen View South.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so saddened by the politically motivated cold-blooded murder of a gallant Change Champion, Citizen Tinashe Chitsunge,\u201d Chamisa said on Twitter.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo life should be lost on account of politics. No party or politician is worth killing for. My heartfelt condolences to Tinashe Chitsunge\u2019s family and the Citizens family as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n

The CCC leader called on the police to effect arrests and bring the perpetrators to justice.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeace to all the citizens. Police do your job,\u201d said Chamisa.<\/p>\n

In an updated statement, police said the suspects are now in custody and assisting with investigations.<\/p>\n

\u201cReference is made to the Glen Norah violence which occurred on 03\/08\/23 resulting in the death of Tinashe Chitsunge.<\/p>\n

\u201cZRP confirms that 10 suspects have now been arrested and are assisting the Police with investigations,\u201d read the statement.<\/p>\n

According to eyewitnesses, Chitsunge was brutally attacked by suspected Zanu PF supporters while going to a rally at Tanaka grounds.<\/p>\n

The rally had been sanctioned by the police, but some Zanu PF members overrode the authorities and took over the ground.<\/p>\n

CCC is said to have engaged the police who displaced the Zanu PF crowds who attacked the opposition supporters leading to the death of Chitsunge and injury of several others.<\/p>\n

Former Cabinet Minister, Jonathan Moyo commended the swift action by the police in apprehending the alleged suspects.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis swift action is commendable, the book should be thrown at the cowardly criminals who murdered Tinashe Chitsunge in such deplorable circumstances, to send a tough message to other similarly minded criminal thugs out there that there is no place for them to hide,\u201d Moyo said.<\/p>\n
