The Zimbabwean political satire group Bustop TV has been tweeting details of the abduction of comedian Samantha Kureya, known by her stage name "Gonyeti".

Samantha Kureya colleagues and family say six armed masked men arrived at her home in Mufakose, a western suburb of the capital, Harare, on Wednesday evening.

They threatened her family before taking her away.

According to Bustop TV, during her three-hour ordeal she was forced to drink sewage, stripped naked and was beaten up with weapons.
