Government Orders to Use Force
Several police officers who were involved told Human Rights Watch that the regional police authorities prepared their men in several meetings at different police stations. For example, three police officers told Human Rights Watch that two days before the January 27 demonstrations, the regional police commissioner for Unguja Urban-West, Khalid Idd Nuizan, reportedly made a speech to a large gathering of policemen in Zanzibar Town, during which he said they should use all force necessary to break up the demonstrations. The police were told that it was better for them to kill than to return with their weapons and bullets. Police commissioner Nuizan reportedly said,
"Kill, bring back bodies, then we will know that you have done your job.". Another police commander, who addressed some 200 police officers in a police mess in Pemba on January 26, 2001,
reportedly told his men that he had received orders from his superiors to use any force necessary, including live ammunition, since the planned demonstration was banned.16 When he told the gathering to use restraint by first firing rubber bullets,
several FFU riot police transferred from the mainland jeered, protesting that it would be interpreted as a sign of weakness if they did not use live ammunition.17 In another police station in Pemba, the police were reportedly given more explicit orders to use live ammunition against crowds numbering more than twenty. In Pemba, the army and the local government administration at Wete sent an intimidating message to residents on January 26, 2001, by removing the police flag at the police station and replacing it with the army flag-suggesting an
arbitrary institution of martial law. Army cars then drove through town, soldiers standing atop their vehicles with guns. The entire town was under police guard.
We were sitting and chatting outside, as normal, when all of a sudden police appeared. They did not give any order for us to leave or disperse. They came there and right away they started shooting, not using sticks or anything like that, but live weapons. They didn't shoot in the air. If they had shot in the air we would have run away. They were shooting at people this side and that side. My friend was shot and died...
I know the one who gave the order-[
police sergeant Mahmoud Juma] Mrema. He was the one who was in charge of the group that day. He didn't shoot, himself. He was giving orders such as, "
Shoot him, shoot that one."
A police officer who was on duty at Madema police station that day provided a similar account:
We went into the town around 11 or 12 o'clock, and everything was calm. Later,
those who were trusted that they could do this thing were chosen; they were given weapons, and they went to town. The result was, when they returned, they had already killed, those two people ...Well, those policemen [who killed] claimed that there was disturbance, but
honestly, there wasn't any disturbance.
Huyu mtu zmima muongo hapa aone kuwa uwongo kwa serikali hii haukuanza leo au jana tazama walivyoshikwa pabaya mpaka wakasema eti risasi ilipigwa juu iliporudi chini ndio ikampiga mtu. Serikali navyombo vyake ni uoza mtupu dhuluma na uongo ndio unaowaonyesha njia ya kuzitawala nchi hizi kiwiziwizi.
Human Rights Watch interviews with
several eyewitnesses, victims, and
police officers contradict the
official government response that characterized the shootings as accidental. Laurean Tibasana, police commissioner in the Tanzanian capital, Dar-es-Salaam,
announced:
In Mtendeni, due to bad luck on January 26, 2001, after Friday afternoon prayers, a police patrol car containing seven police officers on their usual patrol duty were surrounded by a group of people coming out of the mosque and throwing stones at the police. The police fired bullets in the air, whereupon the people dispersed. The patrol car continued on its rounds after the people dispersed without knowing that anyone had been injured. Later, a report was received at the station that a person had died as a result of the
bullets that were fired into the air.
Halafu anazuka mtu anasema chunvi imeongezwa basi wandugu watu wanajulikana wakubwa na mkubwa wao wapo na kesi ipo mbioni.
Tutaburuzwa hivi mpaka lini ? Kinachofanywa Zanzibar msifikirie huko hakiwezi kufanywa kinachotaka kufanywa ni kuwawahi watu hawa mapema japo wanaweka vizingiti watu wasifikishe mashitaka mbele ya safari lakini vizingiti hivyo vitarukwa kama mkimbia mbio za viunzi MKAPA lazima akajibu tu kama hapo mnasua sua nae basi ajue mambo hayajesha na watu wana hasira nae ,hawakubali hawakubali hawakubali ,Mkapa ameuwa na hakuchukua hatua yeyote ile ,zaidi amewapandisha vyeo mapolisi ambao leo hii wengine wako vizimbani wakishikiliwa kwa makosa ya uuwaji ,au Zombe yupo wapi ? Hawa ndio akiwapa sifa na mivyeo kumbe nyuma ya pazia wote ni wauaji. Halafu mnasema mnatukaniwa Raisi wenu hajatukanwa Raisi hapa ,anaambiwa kweli baada ya kwenda kusema mambo ambayo si ya kiungwana na kuwakejeli watu ,watu hawana shida ya uongozi watu wanashida na maisha yao,sasa yeye aliko juu asijisahau ajue mpanda ngazi hushuka ,huo ni msemo wa kiswahili na
