Nyasha told ZimLive that she was relieved that the burial did not go on. Said Nyasha:

They have abandoned their plan to bury our mother without our consent as children.

I’m relieved it did not go according to their plan because a lot of relatives were angry and protested against such inhumane act.

They took the body and we don’t know where the body was since Monday. We are not even sure if it’s the body of our mother and they just added that we will do paperwork as early as possible.

It is alleged that Ali’s burial was to be convened for just 20 people including suspected state agents.

Ali’s alleged killer, Pius Mukandi, alias Jamba was arrested on 16 June after a three-week manhunt.

Her murder triggered violent clashes between Zanu PF and CCC supporters during her funeral wake in June.

Ali’s lawyer, Job Sikhala, was arrested during the clashes and accused of inciting public violence which erupted on 14 June and he remains behind bars.
