SouthernDefenders calls for the immediate release of Obert Masaraure and respect for human rights in Zimbabwe

We are deeply disturbed by the unlawful arrest and detention of Obert where there is no substantial evidence of a crime or his involvement. His case clearly points to the misuse of the criminal justice system to target him. Obert is one of the leading human rights defenders in Zimbabwe and is at the forefront of fighting for the rights of teachers, as well as the right to education in the country.
