Time for accountability
security forces that facilitate excessive use of force, particularly when policing
peaceful demonstrations and other assemblies, so as to bring them into full
compliance with the UN Basic Principles on the Use of Force or Firearms by
Law Enforcement Officials.
Public officials and employees, in particular those in the security forces,
should receive comprehensive and ongoing training in human rights standards
and their implementation.
Recommendations to the international community
Amnesty International urges the international community, in particular African
Union leaders, to speak out publicly and strongly and demand that Zimbabwe
ends impunity for perpetrators of human rights violations.
The international community should publicly support any process for ending
impunity in Zimbabwe.
