Zim journalist attacked over T-shirt message
A senior journalist for Zimbabwe's Financial Gazette, Cyril Zenda, has reported to the Media Institute of Southern Africa (Misa) that he was robbed and attacked by a vigilante group in Harare last week. Zenda told MISA-Zimbabwe that he was spotted by a vigilante group known as Chipangano when he got off a bus at the main bus terminus in Harare.

He said that the group pulled him to a secluded spot and began interrogating him over a message on a Misa-Zimbabwe T-shirt he was wearing.

The T-shirt bore the message "Free My Voice: Free the Airwaves".

He told Misa-Zimbabwe that the group demanded to know what the message meant and why he was wearing a T-shirt with an anti-government slogan.
