| [All Africa] MDC-T President Morgan Tsvangirai on Friday fled his party's Harvest House head offices after a contingent of armed police and the deputy sheriff from the messenger of court raided the building. The deputy sheriff who emptied over five offices at the Harvest House taking all the furniture for auctioning , was acting under the instruction of the courts which ruled in favour of 117 former and current MDC-T employees, whom the party owes their dues. Mid-morning Friday, MDC-T leadership which includes Tsvangirai and his deputy Nelson Chamisa, abandoned the meeting they were presiding over and fled the building as a result of the fracas. Sesil Zvidzai, the party's Presidential affairs secretary, told news hounds that they had to adjourn a national standing committee meeting which the movement was conducting. "The national standing committee wanted to deliberate on election preparedness and we suddenly saw a whole army, of armed police coming through for the purposes that we do not understand. "We also saw the furniture being taken out by the deputy sheriff .We see this a harassment as we go to the elections which we are going to beat Zanu PF and they want the whole country to believe that we are not organized," said Zvidzai as he also shifted the blame to their political rival Zanu PF . "We had started the meeting and we were then disturbed, but the meeting is carrying on .This is our headquarters, this is our home, this is where all plans for transformation take place, so the President is always here to work for the people of Zim-bob-we, but unfortunately there are detractors who do not want to see a progressive Zim-bob-we," he said. |
