THE Kimberley Process should release its report and recommendations on Zimbabwe's diamond sector as soon as possible, the executive committee of the World Federation of Diamond Bourses said yesterday.

WFDB president Avi Paz said from London: "We have been following the situation in Zimbabwe with considerable concern."
