Abstract Amnesty International warns that the Zimbabwe government's persistent and systematic violations of human rights in the run up to the parliamentary elections 31 March 2005 is making free participation in the election process impossible. During a mission to Zimbabwe February 2005, Amnesty International delegates gathered evidence of continued government intimidation and arbitrary arrest of opposition candidates and supporters, manipulation of food distribution for political ends and severe restrictions on freedom of assembly and expression.
