Amid increasing reports of violence against women in Zimbabwe during the pandemic, three women are coming forward to tell of their beatings at the hands of police.
While the women were sitting on the verandah at one of their homes, police showed up and beat them before following them into the house to beat them some more, one of the victims told Zenger News.
Naomi Burayimu, 42, suffered a broken hand. Sabina Jiri, 50, and Eunice Muchenje, 52, were beaten on their backs, chests, feet, and buttocks, and are still dealing with their injuries.
Burayimu, a street vendor, and her two colleagues said they were assaulted by members of the Zimbabwe Republic Police at Jiri’s home in Lion’s Den after voting in the ruling party’s by-elections in Makonde District, Mashonaland West Province, on Dec. 28. They were told to return to the voting station later after technical issues were resolved.

Mutare: A Manicaland-based environmental watchdog has called on government to facilitate an outgrowers scheme for the Shangani community which faces eviction from its ancestral land in order to pave way for a multi-million-dollar Lucerne grass farming project.
Lucerne grass is used for hay and cow forage.
Over 12 000 families from Chilonga and Mutomani areas in Chiredzi were recently dealt a huge blow after government gazetted Statutory instrument 50 which legalises their eviction from ancestral land.
The eviction will pave way for Dendairy’s multi-million-dollar project targeting 10 000 hectares of arable land for Lucerne production meant for supplying local and foreign markets.
