Kadoma businessman Eric Tambudze was reportedly shot dead by unknown assailants at his home in West View last Friday.
Tambudze was a multifaceted entrepreneur; he was a farmer, a pharmacist, and operated a chain of bookstores, in addition to being involved in gold mining.
His son, Leslie, told <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200034537/kadoma-businessman-brutally-killed">NewsDay</a> that the assailants did not steal anything from the scene. He said:
<blockquote>
I don’t have much to say but that’s what happened. My father was shot dead upon arriving home from work by some people last Friday.
</blockquote>
The spokesperson for the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) in Mashonaland West Province, Inspector Ian Kohwera, directed all inquiries to national police spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi, who said he would issue a statement on Monday.
Eric Tambudze is survived by his wife and two children.

The police are investigating. Eric Tambudze leaves behind a wife and two children. The family is mourning the loss.

Kadoma Businessman Killed In Cold Blood

A 28-year-old man from Kadoma, Edward Chitivha, was brought before the Kadoma Magistrates’ Court on charges of bestiality.
Chitivha, who resides in Tolrose Compound, is accused of sexually assaulting a goat owned by Isheunesu Shangudze, a 40-year-old resident of plot 9 Blagdon Farm, Eiffel Flats.
On the 12th of the month, Shangudze penned his five goats for the night. During the night, Chitivha allegedly entered the goat pen, removed his clothes, and placed them on the ground.
He then tied the legs of a white she-goat to a pole and proceeded to violate the animal.
Shangudze, who was asleep in his house, was awakened by the goat’s cries and went to investigate. 
Upon hearing Shangudze approaching, Chitivha fled the scene, leaving his clothes behind.
A police report was filed, leading to Chitivha’s arrest. He has been remanded in custody to the 17th of September 2024.
In Zimbabwe, bestiality is addressed under the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act [Chapter 9:23].
Specifically, Section 74 of the Act criminalises bestiality, defining it as any sexual act between a human and an animal. It reads:
<blockquote>
Any person who knowingly commits any sexual act with an animal or bird shall be guilty of bestiality and 
liable to a fine up to or exceeding level fourteen or imprisonment for a period not exceeding one year or 
both.
</blockquote>

A 28-year-old man named Edward Chitivha from Kadoma was arrested for raping a goat. The goat belonged to Isheunesu Shangudze, who heard the goat's cries and caught Chitivha in the act. Chitivha ran away but left his clothes behind. The police caught him and he will be in jail until September 17, 2024. In Zimbabwe, bestiality is illegal under the Criminal Law Act. This means it is a crime for humans to have any sexual contact with animals, like what Chitivha did with the goat.

Kadoma Man (28) Arrested For Raping A Goat

Two men have been arrested for stealing 28 cattle in and around the Turf Area, Kadoma, Mashonaland West Province over a period of thirteen months.
Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi, the national police spokesperson, also confirmed the arrest of two other suspects for allegedly stealing two heifers in Kadoma. Reads the statement:
<blockquote>
The Zimbabwe Republic Police confirms the arrest of Francis Masvora (54) and Takudzwa Masvora (26) in connection with a spate of stock theft cases in which the suspects stole 28 cattle in and around Turf Area, Kadoma from January 2023 to February 2024.
On the 27th Match 2024, a police crack team acted on received information and raided the two stock theft suspects at their place of residence in Eiffel Flats, Kadoma.
Investigations carried out by the police established that the suspects were in possession of 15 cattle which they failed to account for.
Resultantly, the arrest of the two suspects led to the recovery of eight cows, four heifers, one bull and two calves from the suspects’ kraal, which were all positively identified by five complainants.
Further investigations carried out by the police led to the recovery of 13 cattle which were sold to five buyers. The value of the recovered 28 cattle is US$14 000.00.
In a similar case, police in Kadoma arrested Munashe Mugova (23) and Julius Hlanayi (23) in connection with a case of stock theft which occurred on 16th March 2024 at Pamene Farm, Kadoma in which two heifers were stolen.
On 17th March 2024, the police attended the scene and raided the suspects’ plot. On seeing the police, the two suspects ran away leaving 13 cattle in the kraal.
Two heifers were positively identified by their owner and were subsequently recovered. Investigations by the police unearthed that 11 cattle were suspected to have been stolen and were handed over to the local headman for safekeeping awaiting identification by their rightful owners.
On 28th March 2024, the police acted on received information and conducted a raid at the suspects’ plot in Pamene Farm, Kadoma leading to their arrest.
Meanwhile, on 30th March 2024, police in Chikari acted on received information and arrested a meat vendor, Tawanda Musongeya (38) at his house in Meldon Ace Mine Compound, Chikari.
The police conducted search at his house leading to the recovery of beef amounting to a full carcass. The suspect implicated his brother Hardlife Musongeya and his brother-in-law Praise Mboni as his accomplices. On seeing the police, Hardlife Musongeya and Praise Mboni ran away.
Investigations carried out by the police revealed that the three suspects had assigned their wives Tirevei Jacob (32), Kudzanai Salimu (19) and Noster Simon (34) to sell the meat around Dalny Compound, Chakari. The trio was subsequently arrested.
Tawanda Musongeya led the police to Käbhanga grazing land for indications, where the police established that the suspects stole and slaughtered cattle in Mukamba Area, Chakari.
At the scene, the police recovered one brown hornless cow head, four hooves, offals and one brown hide. The police also noticed four decomposed brown cattle heads and one decomposed black cow head which were all seen at about 15 metres from the scene.
The Zimbabwe Republic Police is appealing for information which may lead to the arrest of the two outstanding stock theft suspects, Hardlife Musongeya (25) and Praise Mboni (28) who are being sought in connection with this case.
Anyone with information to report at any nearest police station or contact our National Complaints desk on (0242) 703631 or WhatsApp on 0712 800 197.

Two Men Arrested For Stealing 28 Cattle In Kadoma

Police in Mashonaland West Province have launched an investigation into a suspected ritual murder incident after the body of an infant was found hanging from a tree in Kadoma.
In a post on their official X handle, the Police said the body had been burned and was in an advanced state of decomposition. Police said:
<blockquote>
ZRP is investigating circumstances surrounding a case of murder in which the body of a yet-to-be-identified male infant approximately one year six months old was found hanging from a tree near Muzvezve River Battlefields, Kadoma on 30 January 2024.
The body of the victim was burnt and in an advanced state of decomposition.
</blockquote>
Earlier, the Police said they had discovered three-year-old Caroline Makubhwakwa’s body lying in a gulley at the foot of Mavhuradona Mountain in Guruve on 25 January.
Some of her body parts were missing, raising suspicion the child was murdered for ritual purposes.
There is a belief in some African societies that human body parts, removed while the victim is still alive, can be used to boost one’s business or to create wealth.

The suspects led the detectives to Martin Spur, Kadoma where they claimed to have hidden weapons used to commit robbery cases. The detectives shot the two suspects on the legs after they tried to escape during indications. The suspects are currently admitted at a hospital in Chegutu where they are receiving treatment. Investigations by the Police have revealed that the suspects are on warrant of arrest which was issued by Chegutu Magistrates Court on 16th January 2024 after they defaulted bail conditions on a murder case.
The Police has also established that the suspects are clearing cases of murder, robbery, malicious damage to property and attempted murder which occurred on 13th January 2024 at Pfupajena Stadium, Chegutu.

Two Robbery Suspects Shot After Attempting To Escape From Police During Arrest

The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has reported several crimes that have taken place across the country, including armed robbery, theft and murder. Here are the details of some of the incidents:
1) Robbery: In Karoi, Gift Bento (26) and Tinashe Mbishi (22) were arrested for a robbery that occurred on 16 January 2024 at Jongwe Mine, Nyamahape. The suspects were apprehended by members of the community at Nyangomba Shops after the victim identified them. The stolen items, which included two cellphones, a mini-digital gold scale, a satchel, and clothes, were recovered along with a machete and an axe.
2) Murder: In Kadoma, Samson Katsuro (50) was arrested for a murder that took place on 17 January 2024 at Village 6 Muzvezve 1, Sanyati. The suspect stabbed his cousin, Peter Katsuro (29), multiple times with a Colombian knife during a mining dispute. The victim tragically died at the scene. Additionally, in Mutare, the police are seeking information regarding the murder of John Maparara (31) who was attacked by four unknown suspects with an iron bar at a nightclub in Area 14, Dangamvura. The victim passed away while receiving treatment at Victoria Chitepo Provincial Hospital on 16 January 2024.
3) Murder: In Nyanyadzi, a suspected mental patient named Patrick Dzavamwe (29) was arrested for the brutal killing of his 4-year-old cousin. The incident occurred on 16 January 2024 at Zvavamwe homestead, Svongwa Village, Buhera. The suspect reportedly confessed to committing the crime after waking up from a nightmare. Furthermore, in Chipinge, the police are appealing for information regarding the murder of Peter Sithole Machaka (19), who was found dead in a pool of blood at Plot 13 Glendalough Farm.
4) Electrocuted Thieves: Two individuals, Lawrence Chimedza and Tinotenda Chireya, sustained severe injuries while attempting to steal ZETDC copper cables at a farm in Mazowe. The incident involved an electric shock that occurred during their theft endeavour. Fortunately, farm residents discovered them lying on the ground and promptly came to their aid.
Since the occurrence in March 2023, Lawrence Chimedza and Tinotenda Chireya have been receiving medical care while hospitalised. Recently, they were brought before the Concession magistrates’ court, where they were remanded in custody until their trial, scheduled for Friday. The state, represented by Munyaradzi Nengomasha, alleged that on March 25, 2023, the two suspects unlawfully entered Plot 12 Welbeck in Mazowe to steal approximately 700 meters of ZETDC copper cables. During their unlawful act, they cut an overhead copper cable, causing a pylon to collapse onto them.
The impact of the falling pylon, combined with the electric current from the overhead cable, resulted in the suspects suffering from electrocution, rendering them unable to escape. Consequently, they were apprehended and transported to the hospital, where they were admitted for medical treatment.

Three Armed Robbery Suspects Killed In Kadoma Shootout With Detectives

The Meteorological Services Department, together with the Department of Civil Protection, predicts cloudy weather across most of Zimbabwe this week.
In a weather report and forecast issued on Monday 23 October 2023, the MSD said thundershowers were widespread, especially in the eastern and central regions, with the highest recorded precipitation in Masvingo, Zvishavane, and Mhondoro. Bulawayo also experienced rainfall. Certain areas, including Matabeleland South, Bulawayo Metropolitan, Masvingo, and Manicaland provinces, saw cloudy, windy, and cold conditions due to rising pressure in the south.
Tomorrow, cloudy conditions with periodic thundershowers are expected in Mashonaland provinces, Harare metropolitan, and Manicaland, while the rest of the country should be partly cloudy and cool in the morning, becoming warmer later in the day. Thunderstorms may bring wind gusts and lightning, making roads slippery and reducing visibility. It is important to drive carefully and find safe shelter during thunderstorms and avoid crossing flooded rivers. Additionally, as the rainy season begins, it is advisable to protect oneself from mosquitoes, which multiply during this time.
On Wednesday, cloudiness is expected to decrease across the country, resulting in mostly sunny conditions. However, isolated thunderstorms may occur in Matabeleland North, northern parts of Midlands, Mashonaland provinces, Harare metropolitan, and Manicaland provinces.

MSD Predicts Cloudy Weather Across Most Of Zimbabwe To Continue

Kadoma Mayor Action Nyamukondiwa and three other MDC-T councillors were recalled after being expelled from the opposition party.
Nyamukondiwa, representing Ward 9, and the other councillors representing Wards 3, 4, and 15 had their positions declared vacant in a letter from Minister of Local Government and Public Works July Moyo to Kadoma town clerk Mr Malvern Dondo. He said:
<blockquote>
I wish to inform you that I am in receipt of a letter from the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC-T) stating that Councillor Action Nyamukondiwa of Ward 9, Councillor Edson Muzira Ward 4, Councillor Nigel Rozario Ward 15 and Councillor Michael Mvura Ward 3 have been expelled from the party.
In terms of Section 278(1) of the Constitution of Zimbabwe as read with Section (1)(k), the above-mentioned wards are now vacant. In terms of Section 121 of the Electoral Act, please proceed to inform the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission of these vacancies.
</blockquote>
The opposition party MDC (Movement for Democratic Change) has been recalling councillors and MPs (Members of Parliament) mainly for their allegiance to the rival Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) led by Nelson Chamisa.
The recalls started immediately after the Supreme Court had ruled that Chamisa was not the legitimate leader of the MDC. There were internal disagreements and power struggles within the MDC party following the demise of founding leader, Morgan Tsvangirai.
The recalls have led to changes in the political landscape of Zimbabwe, with some seats being left vacant and by-elections being held to fill them.

Four MDC-T Councillors, Including Kadoma Mayor, Recalled

Police in Gweru, Midlands Province, are searching for Gerald Takunda Machimula (40) from Kadoma for defrauding his employer, Geo Associates Private Limited, of over US$134,000.
Machimula represented the company in Midlands Province and sold mine claims on behalf of the company but did not remit the money. An audit later revealed the fraud, and it was found that he submitted counterfeit receipts and certificates. 
Midlands Police Spokesperson Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko confirmed the incident. Said Inspector Mahoko:
<blockquote>
The suspect was employed by Geo Associates, a Harare-based company which owns mining claims in and around Midlands Province. The suspect was the company’s representative based in Midlands Province.
</blockquote>
Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko stated that the audit revealed Machimula had sold several claims but did not submit the money to the company. Machimula issued counterfeit receipts and certificates to conceal his fraudulent activities and later absconded.
Inspector Mahoko appealed to the public to report any information that could lead to the arrest of Machimula. He urged individuals to approach CID Gweru or the nearest police station with such information.
The offence of fraud is governed by section 136 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act (Chapter 9:23). The penalty depends on the seriousness of the matter and offenders can be fined or imprisoned or both.

A 16-year-old girl from Gokwe who was allegedly abducted by suspected ZANU PF supporters was dumped in Kadoma.
Chairmaine Chiremba, a learner at Njelele High School, was kidnapped in the early hours of Wednesday according to her father Christopher.
Christopher told the <a href="https://newsday.co.zw/southerneye/local-news/article/200009575/abducted-gokwe-girl-dumped-in-kadoma">Southern Eye</a> that Chairmaine was at Kadoma Police Station. He said:
<blockquote>
I am currently getting information that she is housed at Kadoma police and is safe.
She was dumped along the highway by a black (Toyota) Wish car with no number plates.
She is still in custody at Kadoma Police Station and they said they are making arrangements to ferry her to Gokwe centre.
</blockquote>
He said they realised Charmaine was missing when her mother went to wake her up to prepare for school. 
Her mother found blood stains on the veranda of their bedroom and a note written ‘usivhotela ZANU PF mwana tatora’.
The note was written in a Shona dialect spoken in Gokwe, translated to “you should vote for ZANU PF, we have taken the child”.
Chiremba suspects his child was targeted because, in 2013, his wife contested for councillor under the MDC-T banner and lost. He added:
<blockquote>
Ever since then, we have stayed away from politics. We even voted in the recent ZANU PF primary elections. I am not sure why they would target my family.

Zimbabwe Weather Report, Forecast: 4 - 6 March 2023

A disciplinary tribunal set by the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Law_Society_of_Zimbabwe">Law Society of Zimbabwe (LSZ)</a>, has recommended that Ignatius Murambasvina, a <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Kadoma">Kadoma</a>-based lawyer, be deregistered for unprofessional, dishonourable and unworthy conduct.
Murambasvina is a senior partner at Ignatius Murambasvina Legal Practitioners.
The four-member tribunal was chaired by Felistas Chatukuta, deputised by Joseph Musakwa with Davison Kanokanga and Sarah Moyo as members.
It ordered that Murambasvina’s name be removed from the register of legal practitioners, notaries and public conveyancers.
The LSZ confirmed to <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200007753/kadoma-top-lawyer-deregistered">NewsDay</a> that the lawyer had been deregistered.
The judgment, which was rendered on January 25, 2023, stated in part:
<blockquote>
He had been charged with contravening s 23 (1) (c) of the Legal Practitioners Act [ Chapter 27:07 ] as read with sections 70 E and 70 F of the LSZ regulations, 1982 (SI 314 of 1982) and s23 (2) (b) of the Act.
</blockquote>
It was established that Murambasvina, had been instructed by a client, Maraja Investments Private Limited, t/a Kurima Gold to collect various amounts totalling US$114 000 owed by some 33 debtors.
The ruling noted that despite having been paid a US$1 000 deposit towards his fees, Murambasvina failed to fully account to the client in respect of the collections he made from debtors.
On the second charge, the ruling stated: 
<blockquote>
As at the date of the letter of complaint, the respondent (Murambasvina) had not furnished Messrs Chitewe Law Practice or client with an account of the client’s portfolio despite numerous communications with the respondent both, telephonically and in writing.
</blockquote>
Murambasvina was also accused of blocking the law firm, Messrs Chitewe Law Practice, from taking over the agency at the request of a client when complainants sought alternative legal representation.
The ruling notes that it was proved that on February 17, 2014, Messrs Chitewe Law Practice requested in writing that Murambasvina renounce the agency to enable the firm to carry out the client’s instructions.
Murambasvina was also accused of showing “no remorse and was not a fit and proper person to continue practising law”.
The tribunal concluded that Murambasvina’s conduct had tarnished the integrity of the legal profession and ordered him to pay the expenses incurred by the applicant.

<blockquote>The majority of people in Kadoma live from hand to mouth through the informal sector due to a collapsed economy and industry.
The fact that people have been ordered to stay under lockdown for 21 days means their sources of income have been cut off and consequently they will not be able to put food on their tables.</blockquote>
