NPRC to set up committee to tackle Gukurahundi, violence

THE National Peace and Reconciliation Commission (NPRC) will soon set up a 10-member committee to investigate Gukurahundi atrocities and other political violence incidents that occurred in the country.

This was revealed by NPRC commissioner Lesley Ncube at a national healing indaba organised by Habakkuk Trust in Bulawayo yesterday.

He said the commission will seek citizens’ views and feed into their planning for the fact-finding mission into the atrocities, particularly the Gukurahundi massacres, which he described as unique to the Matabeleland region and would be treated with exception.
