A fellow blogger - The Man from Catford - saw an article at the end of the last week in The Independent about the terrible situation inside Zimbabwe. He described the article as 'grim'.
Also on the TV on Thursday there was a documentary piece about the action of the CIO in Zimbabwe. It seems there are those Zimbabweans now living in South Africa who are terrified of the reach of the CIO, even in South Africa. The evidence for the actual action of the CIO outside Zim is mixed.
What is clear is that many are afraid. I have been informed that in Zimbabwe if one visits a supermarket then the CIO are around listening in to conversations. Zimbabweans need to be careful about what they say, except in the privacy of their own homes. I am reminded of the programme of denunciation within Nazi Germany, the Soviet Republic's Secret Police and the novel 1984.
