Zim Officials Sued for Human Rights Violations

A Zimbabwean official says several top officials and cronies of President Robert Mugabe being sued for torture have been renounced by the state and will not receive legal assistance.

Deputy attorney-general, Prince Machaya, points out that the state will not represent officials being sued by prominent human rights activist, Jestina Mukoko and eight others.

The activists are seeking US$500 million for wrongful arrest, torture and abduction after their terror charges were dropped.
