Harare - Police and lawyers from Zimbabwe's largest mobile phone operator raided the offices of online news agency The Source on Thursday in a dispute over stories published by the agency earlier this year.
The lawyers, accompanied by the sheriff department and technology experts, sifted through staff communications and retrieved emails and documents, Reuters witnesses said. The police stood watch throughout the proceedings.
The Source was created by the Thomson Reuters Foundation and the European Journalism Centre in 2013, with core funding from the Dutch government.
