Police in Kadoma have arrested five suspects in connection with a case of theft of copper cables at Ngwarati Mine, Turf, Kadoma on Sunday morning.
The arrests were confirmed by Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi in a statement on Monday. He said:
<blockquote>
The Zimbabwe Republic Police confirms the arrest of Donald Magaya (23), Onismo Magaya (26), Takudzwa Mango (25), Rabson Mandini (23) and Innocent Chafera (38) in connection with a case of theft of copper cables which occurred at Ngwarati Mine, Turf, Kadoma on 14th April 2024 at around 1030 hours.
On 14th April 2024, police in Kadoma acted on received information and intercepted Donald Magaya, Onismo Magaya, Rabson Mandini and Takudzwa Mango who were travelling in two white Toyota GD6 motor vehicles registration number AFU 4025 and AGH 4138, near Ngezi Services Garage, Turf, Kadoma.
On seeing the police, the suspects’ accomplice, Kupakwashe Mutizira, fled from the scene. The police conducted a search and recovered copper cables weighing 2 572 kilograms valued at US$48 360.00. Subsequently, the four suspects were arrested.
The four suspects were interviewed and implicated Innocent Chafera as their accomplice, who was arrested while hiding in a disused mining shaft.
The Zimbabwe Republic Police is appealing for information which may lead to the arrest of the outstanding suspect, Kupakwashe Mutizira who is being sought in connection with this case.
</blockquote>
In an unrelated incident, police have launched a manhunt for a foreign national, Francis Chikopa (45) over the alleged theft of copper late last month. Asst Comm Nyathi said:
<blockquote>
Meanwhile, the Zimbabwe Republic Police is appealing for information which may lead to the arrest of a foreign national, Francis Chikopa (45) who is being sought in connection with a case of theft of copper which occurred between 30th March 2024 and 31st March 2024.
The suspect was driving a white Howo Sinotruk loaded with 36 tonnes of copper which was in transit from Zambia to Mozambique.
He offloaded the copper at an unknown place and later dumped the truck at Macheke Business Centre, Macheke.
Anyone with information to contact National Complaints Desk on (0242) 703631 or WhatsApp on 0712 800 197 or report at any nearest Police station.

Police Recover Copper Cables Worth US$48 000 Stolen From A Mine

The World Bank has said resource-rich countries in Sub-Saharan Africa only collect an average of 40% of potential revenue from <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2023/01/30/mberengwa-villagers-accuse-kuvimba-of-looting-their-lithium-ore/">natural resources.</a>
In its report released on May 10, titled <a href="https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/entities/publication/5b962927-b2d3-4ea3-a884-971c2b11bbd3">Africa’s Resource Future</a>, the World Bank said the countries in that region have an opportunity to better utilise their resources to finance public programs, diversify their economy, and expand energy access.
By implementing reforms, adopting better policies, investing in fiscal administration, and promoting good governance, governments could increase revenue by more than double.
The bank said it is also crucial to fully tax natural resources to cover the full cost of environmental and social impacts not always borne by producers, including petroleum resources, as failing to do so can act as an implicit production subsidy and increase carbon emissions.
James Cust, Senior Economist in the World Bank Africa Region and co-editor of the report said:
<blockquote>
Maximizing government revenues in the form of royalties and taxes paid by private natural resource industries, alongside attracting new investment, would offer a double dividend for people and planet by increasing fiscal space and removing implicit production subsidies.
</blockquote>
The report warns against the “resource curse” where <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">natural resource wealth</a> does not guarantee inclusive growth and prosperity. The report suggests that governments should invest resource rents into <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">productive capital</a>, including health, education, and infrastructure, and promote <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">regional integration</a> to harmonise mining taxes and royalties.
The report highlights that resource-rich countries have been less resilient to economic shocks and slower in <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">poverty reduction progress</a> in the past.
According to Albert Zeufack, <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">World Bank Country</a> Director for Angola, Burundi, DRC, and Sao Tome and Principe, a regional approach to the extractives sector can create more value and jobs for people living in resource-rich countries beyond extraction alone.
Good governance, sound macro-fiscal management of <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">resource revenues</a>, and preparation for a low-carbon future are critical to a just transition for Africa and the world, and central to Africa’s <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">economic transformation</a>.
The report also said regional trade and economic integration, including the <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">African Continental Free</a> Trade Area, can facilitate the development of the mine-to-market value chain within Africa, making resource-driven development more viable. The agreement also has the potential to reduce tariffs by 90% over the next 5-10 years.

World Bank Says African Countries Only Collect 40% Of Potential Revenue From Natural Resources

An unnamed man who was conducting prayers in a bushy area near Greenlands farm in Umguza spotted copper cable thieves hiding their loot in a swampy area and notified the police.
Police in Bulawayo said the whistle-blower was praying on Wednesday last week when he saw the accused person, Tyson Ncube (27), who was driving a Toyota Hilux dropping two accused people about 50m away from where he was praying.
The two allegedly started rolling and hiding copper cables in a swamp area while Ncube drove off.
The resident who was conducting prayers stopped Ncube as he was about to drive away and apprehended him.
Ncube was interviewed by the police but denied any wrongdoing.
However, police officers searched the area and they recovered an orange electricity marshalling kiosk, a black electricity breaker, two cooling fans on the ground, and four by 50-meter ZESA underground copper cables which were hidden in a swamp.
The <a href="https://www.sundaynews.co.zw/prayer-warrior-gets-copper-cable-thief-arrested/">Sunday News</a> quoted the Zimbabwe Republic Police spokesperson in Bulawayo Province as saying:
<blockquote>
Police are appealing to members of the public to report all suspicious persons who might be dealing in illegal copper, and anyone found tampering with electricity equipment at any nearest police station.
We also appeal to anyone with information that may lead to the arrest of the remaining two accused persons who are still at large to report at any nearest police station.

Praying Man Gets Copper Cables Thief Arrested

The Government of Zimbabwe has, with immediate, effect suspended processing applications for new mining titles seeking rights to extraction of diamonds, copper, lithium, nickel and rare earth which are considered strategic minerals.
The government cites an overwhelming increase in demand for mining claims, <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/govt-stops-issuing-permits-for-five-key-minerals/">The Herald</a> reported citing a correspondence signed by Permanent Secretary for Mines and Mining Development Mr Pfungwa Kunaka.
The correspondence dated December 19, 2022, was addressed to provincial mining directors and the deputy cadastre registrar and the mining affairs board secretary.
The Government has also directed that on applications for inspection certificates, the applicants should submit:
<blockquote>
a). a declaration of the amount of work carried out on mining claims,
b). a declaration of minerals contained in the ore body being mined.
</blockquote>
Reads part of the correspondence:
<blockquote>
We have of late seen flooding of applications for mining titles for minerals which have now been deemed strategic in the upcoming Mines and Minerals Amendment Bill.
It has thus become necessary that in the national interest we temporarily stop acceptance and processing of applications for mining titles for the following minerals until further notice: diamonds, copper, lithium, nickel, and rare earth minerals.
The above directives are to be implemented with immediate effect.
It has come to the Ministry’s attention that some miners have not been declaring discovery of different minerals from the one that they are registered for.
This non-declaration has led to prejudice to the growth of the mining sector economy as in some instances high-value minerals are involved.
Accordingly, you are hereby directed to ensure that on applications for inspection certificates the applicants submit a declaration of the amount of work carried out as well as a declaration of minerals contained in the ore body being mined.
</blockquote>
This, it said, should be backed by an assay certificate issued by an approved laboratory. 
The government recently <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/zimbabwe-bans-export-of-raw-lithium/">banned the exportation of raw lithium.</a>
The deputy cadastre registrar and mining affairs board secretary are now required to undertake frequently targeted inspections to prevent leakages and losses while monthly reports of such inspections need to be submitted to the Ministry of Mines and Mining Development.
In 2019, the Government launched a US$12 billion mining industry strategic roadmap by next year aimed at increasing production in the sector from the low levels of about US$2.7 billion in 2018.
Authorities say the sector has grown to about US$5.3 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach US$8 billion this year.

Zimbabwe Suspends Issuance Of Permits For 5 Strategic Minerals

Two suspected copper cable thieves were shot dead while their four alleged accomplices were arrested by the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) on Saturday at Uzande Business Centre in Zvimba, Mashonaland West.
The gang was intercepted at a police roadblock after allegedly stealing Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority (ZESA) copper cables.
According to the police internal memorandum dated 5 February 2022, on Friday night, the suspects proceeded to Farm 162, Marevanani at Zowa, where they demolished a 200KVA transformer.
The following morning, farm manager Brian Mariwa, spotted the suspects in a thick bush stashing their loot in sacks. Read the police memo:
<blockquote>
Whilst at the observation point, a white AXIO vehicle registration number AEP 3237 with two occupants halted on the dust road and the gang from the bush loaded the sacks of copper windings in the boot of the car.
Mr Mariwa contacted ZRP Zvimba police station and (ZESA) Chegutu Ioss control. He also mobilised villagers to confront the gang of vandals.
The villagers managed to apprehend one Lovemore Murimira of house number 3226 Glenview, Harare and the other five managed to escape with the loot in the vehicle.
On the same date at around 9 am, ZESA Chegutu loss controllers and police detectives attended the scene and discovered a 200KVA transformer had been vandalised and three coils of copper windings had been stolen. 
Detectives interviewed the suspect Lovemore Murimira who had been apprehended by villagers who confessed to be among five people who had vandalised the transformer.
Detectives took Murimira to the scene for initial indications and while proceeding to Zvimba police station, the investigators were flagged to stop at a roadblock along Marevanani /Zowa dust road where two corpses were lying by the roadside.
The pair of Farai Chigudu and Takudzwa Masese, both of Highfield in Harare, had been shot dead by police after violently attacking them for stopping their car.
</blockquote>
Police recovered a digital scale, bolt cutter, pliers and seven plastic sacks loaded with coils of copper windings from the boot of the suspects’ car.
The suspects were named as Mike Tatenda Chigodora of farm 48 Zowa, Lovemore Murimira of 3226 Glenview 1 Harare, Fungai Muzhuzha of Block 13, Geneva, Highfield, Harare, and Jackson Chirindira of 3091 Kambuzuma Section 5, Harare.
They were taken into custody at ZRP Zvimba police station, and the case was recorded under RRB 4648736.
The bodies of the deceased were conveyed to Chinhoyi Provincial Hospital mortuary for post-mortem.

ZESA Cable Thieves Shot Dead At Police Roadblock

The Copper Control Act is being amended to make it illegal for one to be in possession of copper cables without a valid licence.
Those who will be found in possession of copper cables without a certificate of origin will face a mandatory 10-year prison sentence without the option of a fine, in a move meant to deter vandalism of key utilities.
The Copper Control Amendment Bill, which was gazetted on Friday, reads in part:
<blockquote>The vandalism of utilities through theft of copper cables has been exacerbated by the non-provision of specific offences in relation to these acts and non-deterrent penalties in the Copper Control Act.
In order to address the foregoing, the Copper Control Act should be amended to make it mandatory for all copper dealers to have certificates of origin for all the copper in their possession and impose minimum mandatory penalties for offenders.</blockquote>
The proposed amendments also provide for the forfeiture to the State of any vehicle or devices used to transport illegal copper upon conviction. It says:
<blockquote>Clause 4 inserts a new section that makes it mandatory for all copper dealers to have a certificate of origin for all copper in their possession.
This certificate of origin will include the names and addresses of both the seller and the purchaser, the description of copper, quantity, reasons for disposal.
This section will further set a minimum mandatory sentence of ten (10) years without the option of a fine for failure to produce a certificate of origin.
For security reasons, the certificate must be endorsed by the police in the prescribed form and manner to be provided by the police.</blockquote>
