Zimbabwe's ruling and opposition parties have issued a joint call for an end to post-election violence.
A statement called on supporters and members "to stop and desist the perpetration of violence in any form", Reuters news agency reports.
President Robert Mugabe's ruling Zanu-PF and the opposition Movement for Democratic Change have been holding crisis talks in South Africa.

Mr Mugabe won a run-off presidential election in June after opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai pulled out because of a campaign of violence against his supporters.
Last month, the two rivals agreed to hold crisis talks after meeting for the first time in a decade.
A two-week deadline to complete the talks passed on Monday without any news of a deal.
