Police Disrupt Church Gathering, Whip Worshipers

Few hours after Zimbabwe announced its first COVID-19 case, a video of police officers whipping church worshipers and disrupting the religious gathering has gone viral.

Zimbabwe: Police dealing with the church that refused to take instructions on the urgent need to shutdown gatherings to curb Coronavirus spread. I doubt if they counted first if they were 50 or 49. Enough beatings to go round. #COVID19
