In all, 46 people were arrested in the capital Harare last February for taking part in what the government characterized as an illegal political meeting. A former member of Parliament, students, trade unionists and other members of civil society had gathered to watch DVDs.These discs contained news reports on the popular protests that forced the leaders of Tunisia and Egypt to step down early last year.
A spokesman for the group said they met to learn about and to discuss recent events in northern Africa. Authorities, however, said their purpose was to incite and motivate an attempt to overthrow the government, and arrested the participants en masse. Six leaders of the group were singled out and charged with treason. That was later reduced to conspiracy to commit public violence, which carries fines of up to $2,000.在津巴布韦，6名政治活动家因涉嫌策划针对长期在位的总统罗伯特•穆加贝发动埃及-突尼斯式游行示威而被判刑。他们的“罪证”：看电视。
在二月，共计46人在津巴布韦首都哈拉雷因参与被官方定性为“非法政治集会”活动而遭遇逮捕。一名前议员，数名学生，公会成员以及其他几人聚在一起看DVD。这些光碟里存储着纪录发生在去年致使突尼斯和埃及政府下台的群众性游行示威的相关报道。
这伙人的发言人说他们集会的目的不过是学习、讨论最近的北非局势。但是，当局称他们意图煽动推翻现政府，并逮捕了所有人。为首的6人被逐个带走并处理叛国罪。随后他们被减刑，从阴谋叛国减刑至危害公共安全，处以最多2000美元罚款。
