AMH is an independent media house, free from political ties or outside influence, with four newspapers: The Zimbabwe Independent, The Standard, and daily newspapers Southern and NewsDay.
A recent incident at Masasi High School has sparked public outrage, where two students sexually abused a Form 1 student and documented their crime using a smartphone.
This case is part of a troubling pattern where teenagers are filming their own crimes, raising questions about moral collapse, the desire for notoriety in a digital age, or something darker.

The line between perpetrator and documentarian is vanishing, and it's happening before graduation.
