Zimbabwe: New Murambatsvina wave hits Kwekwe

38 families from Amaveni in KweKwe were last week left homeless after council officials from the town, accompanied by heavily armed police officers, used sledgehammers to knock down their homes. The latest crackdown against ‘illegal’ housing by the Zanu-PF led council in the town has met with harsh condemnation from the local MDC MP Blessing Chebundo, who described it as ‘heartless’ and politically motivated.
