In the lead up to the Presidential run-off, Dateline enters Zimbabwe to secretly film the horrific reality of daily intimidation, torture and murder of Opposition supporters.

Recently, the Zimbabwe opposition's number two was charged with subverting government and faces a potential death penalty.

Tendai Biti, the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) secretary general, faces four charges including subverting the government, election rigging and "projecting the president as an evil man."

In recent weeks, party activists have been burned alive or have turned up dead after being spirited away in trucks.

Their rallies have also been banned and police have blocked campaign stops.

There's now mounting concern that the June 27 elections won't be free and fair, with President Robert Mugabe showing no sign of loosening his iron fist rule of Zimbabwe.

About International Dateline
SBS Dateline, which began in 1984, is Australia's longest-running international current affairs program. It has a well-earned reputation for authoritative and incisive reporting. Dateline has taken the traditional way of producing TV current affairs and turned it on its head. Reporters who used to travel with a cameraperson and sound recordist now travel alone and have the responsibility of both filming and reporting their stories. The reporters became video-journalists, gaining access to people and places that the conventional camera crews cannot.
