Army criminals go free under AG Johannes Tomana’s directorship
Posted by ZDN on October 1, 2009
Instead of finding and prosecuting murderers and thugs, the police and, we believe, the secret service Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO), are trying to find and prosecute the people who are keeping records of the perpetrators.
ZDN hopes that publishing the names of these criminals – all of whom are serving army personnel – will discourage the perpetrators from further crimes, and encourage action from their superior officers. We hope also that it shames our Attorney General Tomana.
It is normal under Zimbabwe’s discredited Attorney General for police dockets to vanish. This is why witnesses to politically motivated murder, arson and assaults, have drawn up such a list which names the perpetrators directly. In a normal society, these leads would be followed up, not only by the national army Commander, but by the police.
Tomana’s job as Attorney-General is to supervise all criminal prosecutions in Zimbabwe. But he never follows up on direct information that might incriminate members of ZanuPF.
A legal human rights organisation says this list is just the ‘tip of the iceberg’.
