An armed group believed to be associated with a notorious Deputy Minister attacked the MTV/MBC office at Braybrooke Place a short while ago severely damaging the place, an MBC official told Daily Mirror online.
When asked if the Minister was also present at the scene, the official said that the Minister was not to be seen at the time of the incident.
He also said that the MTV staff members were attacked by stones and the staff had retaliated by throwing the same stones at the gang afterwhich the gang fled the scene.
Police who arrived at the scene made ateleast 16 arrests.
Government and Opposition members also rushed to the scene to see the extent of damage and hold discussions with the MTV/MBC management.
Members of the Special Task Force and the police have been deployed outside the premises.

For how long can we go on this kind of nonsense? It has already been going on for half a decade.
Senator said
Let me make this prediction. No one will ever be punished for this crime after proper judicial proceedings.
Of course, some chaps will be produced before court and remanded and after sometime will be released. And then the chapter will be closed.
I am told, Zimbabwe police do a better job than out police in similar situations.
Senator said
Await an announcement by the Police Spokesman ‘ Investigations are continueing’.
