Khupe assaulted?
Unconfirmed reports say unidentified assailants attacked outgoing president Thokozani Khupe.
This was after Khupe, who was one of the candidates contesting for the opposition party’s presidency attempted to call off the election in the middle of the process. Khupe claimed that there was massive vote-rigging allegedly orchestrated by Secretary-General Douglas Mwonzora.
