The RoundUP
ZPP recorded a total of 263 human rights violations, an increase from
October's 255. Of these, 42 were in Mashonaland West, followed by 41 in
Mashonaland Central and 39 in Harare. In November 2022, there were 2,867
victims (1,987 Males, 880 Females, including 8 PWDs). Assault cases
continued to be the most prevalent in the month, with documented
incidents slightly decreasing to 43 from 44 in October. Campaign activities
for the by-elections scheduled for December 3 resulted in opposition
supporters being assaulted and intimidated.
The number of victims being persons with disability decreased to 0.14% for
both women and men PWDs. Most human rights cases were perpetrated by
the Zanu PF party, responsible for 48% of the violations, followed by the
Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) at 33%. The general citizens populated the
highest percentage of victims, 89% and Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC)
supporters followed with 10%. Law enforcement agents and the ruling party
continue to subject Zimbabwe's citizens to gross human rights violations.
The Monthly Monitoring Report is a compilation of human rights violations in
Zimbabwe. The report exposes perpetrators, informs the general public
about the social, political, economic, civil and cultural human rights
situation and is used to develop advocacy initiatives with various
stakeholders. ZPP launched the #RRRV2023 campaign that will create an
active citizenry that Resists, Rejects, and Reports violence ahead of
elections. The campaign seeks to achieve a peaceful electoral process
where citizens are empowered to speak out and report when violated and
increase their level of alertness and responsiveness to pressure duty
bearers to be accountable.
