The ZRP has announced that they are investigating a case of abuse of two minors in a video that circulated.

In the video that Crime Watch Zimbabwe shared, two minor boys were being beaten by a man wearing blue trousers. The man can be heard in the video asking the boys to strip so that he beats them. One of the boys shared that he was not wearing any underwear, to which the older man replied that it didn’t matter.

The assault continued while other grown-ups watched, and one behind the camera was cheering for the beating to continue. Another woman joined in the attacks with a small log and began beating the two minors on the heads before she was held back. She kept wanting to come back to beat them, but another woman held her back.
