Masvingo Residents Arrested Over Peaceful Water Protest

MASVINGO Residents Trust secretary general Prosper Tiringindi was arrested Friday morning together with a group of women who converged at the Civic Centre to demonstrate over water. Masvingo has not had water for the last three weeks following a fault at a Zesa transformer at Lake Mutirikwi which is yet to be attended to. The group, carrying empty buckets, converged at the Civic Center before proceeding to the entrance to the mayor and town clerk’s offices. They were then arrested by the Municipal Police who later called in ZRP and they were whisked away to Masvingo Central.
