An MDC official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said: "It's not enough to merely take them to court. The people responsible for the abductions are the ones who have to appear in court. The Police Commissioner Augustine Chihuri, the Ministers of Intelligence and Defense, all of them should be sued. SADC knows the people were abducted and therefore the regime has to be sued and SADC has to agree. We cannot tolerate this continued culture of impunity. Neither should the MDC treat the appearance in court of abducted activists as some form of political victory. It is an anomaly."
Meanwhile the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights said on Wednesday it feared that more people, unknown to the lawyers, are still being held. "It is our strong belief that more individuals than those disclosed to lawyers are being held in those police stations, as well as others which have not yet been visited. It is also our belief that there may be more abducted persons than those currently confirmed and on the full list with which lawyers are currently working, as confirmed by the discovery of two individuals in custody who had not been previously known to be abducted," the group said.
