ZIMBABWE: FROM IMPUNITY TO ACCOUNTABILITY bravely developed in the face of vicious, often physical attacks from the Government and its agents. It must do so in a country where most things previously in place no longer exist, such as a secure transport and communication system, a free press, and the rule of law, let alone many basic necessities, and all this in the context of hyper-inflation and growing personal danger. If it is to successfully take on additional burdens to intensify the campaign for justice for the tens of thousands of victims of gross and systematic human rights violations, it will need maximum support and understanding from the international human rights movement. The least that those outside can do is to continue to keep the eyes of the world focused on Zimbabwe, and not allow it to drop off the agenda. Indeed, if Zimbabweans are expected to intensify their struggle for justice and democracy then their allies should do likewise: anything less would be betrayal. 36
