Government Vows To Go-Ahead With Interception To Communication Bill
The Government has vowed that it will go ahead with the Interception to Communication Bill.
If made into law the bill will allow authorities to monitor phone calls and the internet.
Opposition parties civil society groups told parliamentarians in Harare today, at a Parliamentary Portfolio Committee hearing on Transport and Communication, that the bill is unconstitutional.
But members of the CIO, the military and Media Information Council, boss Tafataoana Mahoso said, but government will press ahead to monitor calls and internet to protect the country from "insurgency."
Zimbabwean internet service providers say this might force them to close down if they have to install the monitoring equipment at their own cost.
