Breaking Away From the Past: A Human Rights Manifesto for Zimbabwe’s Political Parties and Candidates

Zimbabwe's election at the end of the month will take place in the context of decades of politically motivated gross human rights violations, including mass killings, the forced disappearance of critics and suppression of peaceful protesters, Amnesty International said in a new briefing published today.

The briefing, Breaking away from the past: A human rights manifesto for Zimbabwe’s political parties and candidates, offers seven human rights recommendations for the candidates and political parties battling for control of Zimbabwe in the 30 July election.
