TWO Chinese nationals have been deported for abusing a mine worker at Makanga Mine in Bindura.

This follows a video that circulated showing the worker tied up and hanging from a loader bucket.

Posting on his X handle, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Mr Nick Mangwana said: “The two foreign nationals involved in this abuse depicted on a video that went viral were deported today (Wednesday).”

The Zimbabwe Miners Federation (ZMF) had said they were incensed by the savage attack on the mine worker.

In a statement, ZMF said the barbaric act was a blatant violation of the Constitution of Zimbabwe, which guarantees the right to personal security and freedom from torture or cruel, inhumane or degrading treatment.
