MDC activists "attacked" by Zanu-PF loyalists - 29 Apr 2008

Al Jazeera's Stefanie Dekker reports on the victims of an attack by the supporters of Zimbabwe's ruling Zanu-PF party.

Jonothan Marikita was attacked as he slept in his home with his wife and one year old child who were also hurt.

Marikita was attacked with an axe, maimed and left unconscious to die.

Takesure Chingamawhe, another MDC supporter who was also attacked by supporters of Zanu-PF is lucky to be alive.

Both victims spoke exclusively to Al Jazeera from his hospital bed in Harare as elsewhere in the capital 200 other supporters of the Opposition MDC party were released from prison.

Many of those released from prison have nowhere to go because their homes have been burnt down.

Mugabe is a monster.

Maybe you also support a hyperinflation currency? they can only put so many 0's on their currency

Mugabe is the hero of the African people, this pink "white" people propaganda on aljazeera is not new to us.

we know Aljazeera is from quatar and that country is the USA heaven of madness.

that is why it is a pink journalist doing the report and it is aljazeera doing this insane report.

[FuckFacts]

fuck off you stupid fascist. If I ever saw you or fucking mugabe I'd be like "AH" and kick him in the balls. Your country is in desperate need of a change and you can't even fucking see the suffering around you? I honestly hope that your eyes are eaten by the scavengers so you'll have an excuse for being so fucking blind. I also hope you die if that wasn't clear. FUCK OFF.
