Police
officers in Zimbabwe have come under intense criticism after they
forced two prisoners to mop the floor with their buttocks leaving them
severely bleeding.

Two female prisoners have revealed how police officers subjected
them to barbaric and heartless treatment as they were forced to wipe the
floor with their bleeding buttocks. The incident happened in Zimbabwe.
According to NewZimbabwe,
the women were kicked and head butted by martial arts experts and
whipped with baton sticks. Throughout the eight-hour torture session,
they said, they were called derogatory names and fed with one frozen
freezit drink.
The women identified as Esther Mutsigiri and Gladys Musindo who
have been released on bail were left with bleeding buttocks after the
incident.
They were arrested after they were suspected to have taken part in
the NERA demonstration last Saturday. They were released on $400 bail
each and are currently admitted at Avenues Clinic in Harare. The two
spend their time sleeping face down or sideways because of the extent of
injuries on their buttocks and the unbearable pain.
“I was bundled into the back of a police truck and made to
sleep face down; time and again officers would beat me with a baton
stick while some stepped on me,” said Mutsigiri, narrating her ordeal to NewZimbabwe.com.
“They (police) made us sing gospel songs, saying our fate was
now in the hands of God. We moved from one area to another as the police
chased after and arrested some people; we could not tell where we were
coming from or going to for the better part of the day as we were made
to lie face down.
“After that, in their drunken stupor, the beating started and went on until I could no longer feel the pain,” said Mutsigiri.
“Some of them only apologised when an ambulance came to pick
us, saying it was not their faulty; claiming it was an order from their
seniors,” said Musindo.
A woman's rights pressure group, Justice for Women condemned the
act and urged the government and relevant agencies to bring the
perpetrators to book.
