This story is a plea for awareness and action on behalf of the people of Zimbabwe in conjunction with Amnesty International I urge all readers to pass this on as these people are suffering. Surely some one or some group can help them.
A young man who is a former Central Intelligence Agent in Zimbabwe fled his country after being taught to torture and kill his own countrymen.. He claims that he was recruited at a National Youth Service Training Camp.While at camp. he was approached by a group of men who drove a black Mercedes Benz. All the young man knew of his Country’s secret service at that time was that they protected the sovereignty of Zimbabwe, yet he feared them.
The young man needed money and accepted their offer. As part of his training; he was told along with several others that he would be learning torture techniques. In a room with no windows, the trainees were all given a cup of gin and made to smoke marijuana. A man was thrown into the room and the trainees were told to beat him and that it was a random beating. The trainees beat the man and kicked him until he was bleeding and stopped.
The training agents asked why they stopped and they were made to continue. The trainees were then given a drug in pill form that induced rage and a second man was thrown into the room. They put him on a desk and beat his feet until they turned black.The man who could no longer walk collapsed.
A third man was sent in and they poured water on him and took turns shocking him until he fell on his face smelling like burned meat. They mutilated the next man with a screwdriver and pliers, the description is so graphic I could not print it here but it is printed on the
BBC
The trainees were later made to take a locked trunk to a lake. at the lake they found the keys to the trunk with a bag of cement and instructions. When they opened the trunk they found a man still alive, beaten bleeding and tongue cut out. they were told to put the cement into the trunk and drown the man in the trunk. The young man who told this story did not want to do this but they were being watched by camouflaged soldiers.
Somehow after this event the young man who tells this story managed to escape,he cries himself to sleep every night as his conscience and memories haunt him.
This is one of the many accounts of the violence in post election Zimbabwe. There are news reports of 84yr. old grandmas being axed in the head, people burned repeatedly with flaming plastic, people murdered in front of their families and villages burned.
Awareness is the first step to action my prayer is that help will come for these people.
