Cops Sucked Into Cattle Rustling Racket
Some police officers stationed at Charandura police station in Chirumanzu risk dismissal from the force following reports that they are working with cattle-rustling syndicates in the area.
Zimbabwe Republic Police’s officer commanding Midlands, Assistant Commissioner Peter Sibanda revealed that investigations into the matter are underway. He said:
As police officers, we are dealing with that issue where our members were accused of dipping in cattle rustling cases.
FeedbackI sent my Dispol to that area and we are doing something. Very soon some officers may be reshuffled or fired.
The Standard has established that since 2016, there has been a sharp rise in stock theft cases in the area but surprisingly, not even a single arrest has been made.
Police officers in the area have been selling beef to villagers, with a police officer, who owns a butchery at Chaka growth point, reportedly summoned over allegations that he was working in cahoots with cattle rustlers.
