Johannesburg - With the worldwide condemnation and negative publicity it garnered, Zimbabweans are 'deeply ashamed' after their first lady, Grace Mugabe, who beat up a young South African girl.
A group of prominent Zimbabwean political activists on Wednesday apologised to South Africans following the recent assault of a 20-year-old model at a Sandton hotel by President Robert Mugabe’s wife Grace.The group, calling itself "Vana veDzimbabwe" or Children of Zimbabwe, submitted the letter of apology at the South African embassy in Harare.

"On behalf of our nation and her people, we want you to know that we are deeply ashamed at this unfortunate incident. It is our natural, moral and religious conviction that violence is abhorrent and not a good solution to any issue where dialogue and mediation are possible."
"We as children of this land do hereby submit this apology to the people of South Africa for the assault of South African citizen Gabriella Engels by the wife of our president, First Lady Dr Grace Mugabe on 13 August 2017," read part of the letter.
Meanwhile, some four other pro-democracy groups also petitioned the South African High Commission challenging the credibility of the diplomatic immunity given to the Zimbabwean First Lady by South African authorities following her assault of the model.
