6. 7. 8. That the Constitution guarantees future respect for human rights and set up a justice system and other institutions to give effect to such guarantee; That the government must enable Zimbabweans to take advantage of' the protection and remedies offered by international human rights instruments; That there should be an investigation into corruption and asset stripping, and the repossession of all assets misappropriate from state and private enterprise, or acquired through corruption and other illegal means. In the short term, we make the following demands on the Zimbabwean Government: 1. That there be an immediate end to political violence and intimidation, an immediate disbanding of the militia, and an immediate return to non-partisan police, army and intelligence services and nonselective application of the law; 2. That there be an immediate repeal of all repressive legislation and unjust laws such as the Public Order and Security Act, the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act and the Broadcasting Services Act and charges brought before the repeal of these laws should be withdrawn and sentences previously imposed be annulled; 3. That there be an immediate opening up of political space, including the immediate and complete overhaul of electoral laws and institutions to enable all elections to be held under free and fair conditions; 4. That the economic and humanitarian crisis in Zimbabwe must be immediately addressed. We also call upon the United Nations to immediately send a Special Rapporteur to Zimbabwe to assess the human rights environment. ii
