Case 2 27 year old Male from Glenview 1, Harare, Zimbabwe. History “I was at the house of an MDC councillor. There were about 30 of us MDC youths present. At about 3am today, Wednesday 4th June, 2003 the front door of the councillor’s house was forced open and a group of about 15 soldiers came into the house. They were dressed in camouflage uniform and one was in Police Riot blue uniform, and all carried AK 47 rifles and batons. They asked us why we were there, “you are the guys we want to see, you are MDC”. They told us to chant our slogans. At first we kept quiet, then we chanted the MDC slogans. One of our group was seen climbing under the bed and he was dragged out, the bed was then put up against the wall and we were made to lie on our stomachs and were beaten again with the batons and rifle butts. The soldiers were saying “why do you want Mugabe to go, how much money are you being given, where is Madzore (MDC Member of parliament for Glen View)?”. Afterwards they made us collect all the food and groceries in the house and carry them out to their Army lorry and a light blue Mazda 323. I did not recognise any of the soldiers but I did see Elliot Manyika MP with them. I sustained injuries to my back, right leg and arm and buttocks.” Examination Findings The patient had multiple bruises of his back and right upper arm, linear, consistent with being assaulted with a baton. He also sustained a fracture of his lower right ulna, a classic defence injury, and had deep haematomas of both buttocks and thighs, indicating he had been repeatedly beaten with blunt heavy objects while in a prone Case 2 photograph position.
