摘要

As zimbabweans prepare to vote in a second and final round to elect a president on June 27th, the chances of an early and peaceful end to the country's misery look remote. Following the first round on March 29th, which even President Robert Mugabe and his officials had to admit was won by the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (mdc), the regime is inflicting a shocking wave of violence against its own citizens. Though Morgan Tsvangirai, the mdc candidate, sounds buoyant about his chances, it is hard to see how he will be allowed to win.rnIn an orchestrated campaign of intimidation, pro-government militias, backed by the army, are doing all they can to make sure Mr Mugabe keeps his job. According to the mdc, at least 65 of their people have been killed, and thousands tortured and forced to flee their homes. Earlier this month, Human Rights Watch, a New York-based group, documented a systematic campaign of violence, torture and intimidation against civic organisations, lawyers and journalists, as well as the MDC.
