Mahere "Grilled" By CID Officers Over CCC Rally Explosion Incident

CCC spokesperson, Fadzayi Mahere, was on Wednesday summoned to Chinhoyi Central Police Station’s Law and Order Department where she was grilled in connection with statements issued by the party following an explosion at a rally two weeks ago.

In a post on her Twitter page on Wednesday evening, Mahere, who was accompanied by her lawyers when she presented herself to the CID officers, said she was questioned by the investigating officers and released. She said:

Attended at CID Law & Order Mash West in Chinhoyi. I was questioned in connection with the statements we issued concerning the rally explosive incident.

I gave the investigating officers the information & clarification they requested and I have been excused.

A fortnight ago, there was an explosion at Gadzema Grounds in Chinhoyi during a CCC Thank You Rally.

The explosion occurred just as CCC leader Nelson Chamisa’s motorcade made its way into the venue.

The opposition party has blamed ZANU PF activists for throwing the explosive in a suspected attempt to maim Chamisa before the 2023 elections.

Meanwhile, Mahere on Tuesday admitted CCC had wrongly identified a motor vehicle registration number plate supplied to police for investigations in relation to the explosion.
