Politirazziaerne mod menneskerettighedsorganisationernes kontorer, som f.eks. Zimbabwes menneskerettighedsforum og mange andre, angiveligt for at lede efter undergravende materiale, og anholdelsen af forskellige ngo-medarbejdere og medlemmer af MDC samt af studenter og unge aktivister, som er taget til siden februar, er taktikker i en uacceptabel intimideringskampagne.
Police raids on offices of human rights organisations, such as the Zimbabwe Human Rights Forum and several others, allegedly in searches for subversive material, and the arrests of various NGO workers and members of the MDC itself, along with students and young activists, which have intensified since February, are tactics in an unacceptable campaign of intimidation.
