Zimbabwe riot police arrested more than 200 opposition activists and officials on Saturday during a meeting they were holding at their party headquarters, an opposition spokesman said.
"They raided the offices at Harvest House. They had no search warrant. They gave no reasons but they have taken in our members who were holding meetings there," Nelson Chamisa of the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) told Reuters.
"We believe this is part of the harassment that we are being subjected to." Police wielding pistols and batons raided the meeting, which did not include top opposition figures. Activists were taken away in three police vans, said Chamisa.
