They attempted to force all journalists who were present to put away their equipment before the press briefing started.
Chamisa has challenged the results of the presidential election after the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) declared incumbent President Emmerson Mnangagwa the winner of the election with 50.8 per cent.

The scenes today at the Bronte Hotel have no place in our society and we are urgently investigating the matter to understand exactly what happened... the past nine months we have protected freedom of speech, of assembly and the right to criticise the government says @EDMnangagwa pic.twitter.com/BpYB2zFyJf— Zimbabwe Elections (@electionszw) August 3, 2018
