A Movement for Democratic Change legislator Thamsanqa Mahlangu today said senior Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front officials were responsible for the cyanide poisoning of elephants which has claimed more than 100 animals in the Hwange National Park. “The MDC is convinced that the few poachers that have been arrested are junior players while the key players who are well connected in the murky ZANU-PF circles are being left to continue with high scale poaching activities. Those that have been arrested were paid as little as US$500 by the well linked ZANU-PF syndicates to poison the water wells with the cyanide chemicals,” Mahlangu said.
