"I too wish to join those who have called in this Chamber for the immediate release of Farai Maguwu. We must condemn the detention conditions he has been subjected to, as well as the failure to respect his basic human rights during the proceedings. As you are aware, the role of civil society organisations is essential, not only to ensure the success of the Kimberley Process, but also to safeguard democracy in Zimbabwe in general. However, this country cannot make progress along the road to democracy if human rights activists are forced to keep silent when the international media as well highlight violations that have been committed. I would also like to stress that the Zimbabwean authorities are duty-bound to investigate impartially human rights violations committed in the diamond fields and to bring those responsible for these actions to justice. The keyword in this case is transparency. Zimbabwe’s citizens have the right to be informed, which means that the authorities must fulfil the commitments they have made voluntarily as part of the Kimberley Process."@en1
