In late June 2009, Human Rights Watch published a report documenting
horrific human rights abuses by Zimbabwe's police and military in the
Marange diamond mines. Tiseke Kasambala has covered
Zimbabwe for Human Rights Watch since 2004 and is widely recognized as
among the world's leading experts on Zimbabwe's blood diamonds. Using
her timely, on-the-ground information, Tiseke has been pressing
governments, the diamond industry, and international regulators to keep
Zimbabwe from exporting Marange diamonds until abuses are addressed. Human Rights Watch has launched an "Ask Before You Buy" campaign on blood diamonds. Join us to learn more. |
