COULD this be the man responsible for Itai Dzamara’s abduction?  – The ZRP cop tried to attack and cause grievous bodily harm on Harare West MP Jessie Majome, on Wednesday at the same spot where abducted Itai Dzamara was once brutalised earlier in the year.

The cop, (name supplied) violently encroached into Majome’s private space as she marched into parliament house for work. He threatened to assault before creeping away in shame into the back of a lorry.
“This police officer of the black boots section just threatened to beat me up with his fellow anti riot troops for taking his photograph outside Parliament of Zimbabwe encamped there and blocking my way,” said Majome.

She continued detailing, “so much for MP, let alone public access to Parliament in terms of section 141 of the Constitution.
He proceeded to verbally abuse me in a sexist manner and which I consider to be sexual harassment by saying it’s my husband that I should photograph and not him. My foot!
“I made it clear to him that I have a constitutional right to photograph especially public officers on duty paid my tax dollars, especially those blocking my way to sit in Parliament. He seemed to be unsettled a bit when he realized I’m an MP. He refused to identify himself and had no force (now service as the Police is now a service in terms of the Constitution) number as is now the norm.
“The police is unlawfully and unconstitutionally barricading teeming street vendors from demonstrating outside Parliament.
“This reminded me that I’m supposed to be afraid of taking photographs of all the king’s horses and all the king’s men. I’m not! I’m also reminded of a young lady who asked me in whispered incredulity when I snapped the child soldiers outside Parliament last week, if I was actually allowed to do that, to my own incredulity. What a terror-stricken nation!”
I intend to file a complaint against my insulter.
