The party’s supporters were among those attempting to flee Zimbabwe’s rural areas, where state-sponsored violence has reportedly been occurring since the recent parliamentary elections. The Zimbabwe African National Union — Patriotic Front government lost in those elections and has since initiated a “Who did you vote for?” operation in the areas around the capital of Harare. An anonymous political analyst said the nearly 400 MDC supporters were among those being arrested for allegedly causing the post-election violence. MDC officials have claimed their leader, Morgan Tsvangirai, defeated Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe in the first round of presidential elections, IRIN reported. The official results of the first round have yet to be announced. See More:World NewsHave Your Say: Democracy supporters arrested in Zimbabwe Please note, only selected comments will be published.

This is a potential timebomb as yet again more HUMAN RIGHTS are trampled into the dust . In my opinion it is not enough for the U.N. and the west to monitor and poor scorn on this situation although i am glad in a way that they are as it keeps it in the news , but both the U.N. and the rest of the WEST Need too take active direct action ( that does not necesserialy mean war ) before the powder keg blows wide open !!! .
