Aid organisation Oxfam says it is concerned about the increasing number of
disappearances in Zimbabwe. Oxfam says it is particularly concerned about
Jestina Mukoko, manager of the Zimbabwe Peace Project, who was abducted at
the beginning of this month. There has been no sign of her since she
disappeared. The organisation says 38 union members were arrested after a
strike, and disappearances have also been reported elsewhere in the country.
Oxfam reports that aid workers have been trying to leave the country
following threats. The organisation says the situation is worsening daily
and has called on the Netherlands to urge South Africa to increase pressure
on Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe.
