Newspaper vendors under threat

Newspaper vendors in Mutare who sell private daily newspapers, NewsDay and the Daily News, say they are living in fear after receiving threats from suspected pro-Zanu PF activists.

Alleged Zanu PF youths have reportedly been confronting vendors, threatening them with assault if they continued to sell the papers which they accuse of being anti Zanu PF.

“When the headline is opposing Zanu-PF, a group of youths always walks around, saying we should stop selling the newspapers.
