The Civic United Front has expressed dismay over what it alleges as kidnap, attack and torture of its director for parliamentary affairs and election, Mr Sheweji Mketo, and five other senior party officials in Mtwara by people suspected to be officers of the Tanzania People's Defence Forces.
The six party officials were said to have been kidnapped on Wednesday as they were heading to Mtwara town from Msimbati Village to collect evidence over a sodomy incident linking security officials in the region, according to the party chairman, Prof Ibrahim Lipumba.
