COMMENTS
Ah. This was a waste of time. Meeting the accused and not the aggrieved does not give the investigator facts. It is not for zanu to tell us we are not being abducted, tortured and abused. The invoys should have heard us. Zanu is a joke. If SA takes that they will be harshly judged by history. President Ramaphosa should be resolute and insist on a broad-based investigation. He should not be intimidated by Zanu which has a lot to hide. Hope this is not another Thabo Mbeki promise to return. The point is President Mbeki and these two enyoys should compare notes. The crisis in Zimbabwe will not go away on its own. It has potential to spill over and affect neighbours. Cry the beloved country.
