Gweru Provincial Magistrate Miriam Banda ordered Home Affairs Minister Kazembe Kazembe to compensate Amos Siska for the pain and suffering he endured at the hands of his officers in 2020.

Siska was assaulted in April 2020 by some police officers all over his body with batons, boots and open hands while queuing at Stanbic Bank in Gweru.

He suffered serious injuries, including a broken arm.

Siska hired Reginald Chidawanyika of Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights, who sued ZRP Commissioner-General Godwin Matanga and Home Affairs Minister Kazembe Kazembe for damages including shock, pain and suffering, and to recover some medical expenses. which he incurred while seeking treatment.

In 2022 he won the case after a full trial.

However, the minister did not pay any compensation before Siska initiated contempt proceedings and threatened to have the duo arrested.

However, Kazembe recently complied with the court order and paid ZWG143,368 to Siska as instructed by the court.
