DISPATCHES: BANKROLLING MUGABE

July 27th, 2009 by Lisa McGarry. Tags: Channel-4, Dispatches

This week’s Dispatches investigates how Robert Mugabe and ZANU-PF party are still clinging on to power in Zimbabwe; and focuses on the businessmen who are benefiting from or supporting his campaign of political violence. According to opposition politicians in Zimbabwe, those businessmen include well-known figures and companies based in the City of London. Despite the power-sharing “National Unity Government”, Dispatches reporter Aidan Hartley discovers that Mugabe has maintained his grip on the police, army and central bank, carrying out violence and corruption on a vast scale.
