#1 ZANU-PF? Corruption and crime are their bread and butter, and only the opposition goes without food ;-)

#3 Like all criminals, they think everybody's doing the same thing they are, and it makes a good excuse to lock up the competition.

#7 Mugabe also signed a decree authorizing detention without bail for up to four weeks for political and economic offenses such as corruption or money laundering.

Given the current economic disaster Zimbabwe is, corruption charges could be used against anyone trying to survive. No doubt the money laundering is to be used where anyone, particularly the opposition, has money in banks outside the country.
