Alliance national youth organizer and Ward 4 Masvingo urban councillor Godfrey
Kurauone, who was recently granted bail by the High Court after spending a
fortnight in remand for allegedly insulting the authority of President Emmerson
Mnangagwa, remains on the police radar with the authorities seeking him out for
questioning in relation to the July 31 planned protests.
Kurauone
is among a long list of activists who are wanted for questioning for their
alleged involvement in the planning of ‘violent’ protests this Friday.
The
national broadcaster ZBC-TV, during their eight o’clock news bulletin on
Monday, announced that Kurauone and other activists who made the list were wanted
by the police for interviews.
Kurauone
told TellZim News that he was shocked by the announcement and said he was no
hiding from the police and if they want him they know where to find him.
He also
said that he will not go to the police physically because of Covid-19 but is
always willing to give them an online interview if they have questions for him.
“I do
not know what the charges are. I am not hiding and they know where to find me.
If it is an interview they want then they have to schedule and online meeting
because I am not going to report to them physically because of Covid-19.
“The
regime is seeing ghosts everywhere and silencing dissenting voices is not the
answer. The voice of the people is the voice of God and the people are
screaming on top of their voices that enough is enough and sadly the regime
responds with a hammer,” said Kurauone.
