Case No 2184 (Zimbabwe) - Complaint date: 15-MAR-02

The International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU)

Allegations

On 14 March 2002, policemen entered by force into the headquarters of the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU) in Harare in order to monitor a meeting of its Executive Council. When reminded that they were not invited and should therefore leave the ZCTU premises, they threatened that, unless they were allowed in, they would use force to disband the meeting. As the union leadership stuck to its position, the police prevented the ZCTU from proceeding with the meeting. Allegations refer also to the intention of the authorities to deregister the ZCTU.
