A mushikashika crew, a driver and his conductor have been arrested for allegedly kidnapping and assaulting two traffic police officers in Waterfalls, Harare.
The suspects, Kudakwashe Chigeregomo (23) and Emmanuel Denhere (18), both residents of Kuwadzana, kidnapped and assaulted Constables Godknows Maretawona (36) and Isaac Manjokoto (33), who are stationed at the Mbare Traffic Police Station.
The two police officers were at an intersection in Waterfalls, where they were deployed to maintain order at the busy intersection.
The cops arrested the pirate taxi driver and his conductor who were illegally carrying passengers in a grey Nissan AD van (AGE 6658) without an operator’s licence.
The two police officers boarded the car and ordered Kudakwashe to drive to Mbare Traffic Police Post at Masteps in Hopley.
Rather than complying with the police officers’ instructions, Kudakwashe drove the vehicle toward the east along Forbes Road, ultimately colliding with a precast wall of a house, which brought the vehicle to a halt.
Both Kudakwashe and Emmanuel attacked the two police officers, repeatedly striking them on the head and face with unidentified objects.
The assault was captured on video and shared widely on social media by an unidentified individual.
The cops eventually called for backup from their office and managed to subdue the suspects.
They sustained head injuries from the assault and were rushed to Sally Mugabe Hospital for treatment.
Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed the arrest of the two men, adding that investigations into the matter are ongoing.

Mushikashika Crew Arrested For Kidnapping And Assaulting Cops In Harare

Bulawayo residents have urged authorities to consider regularising the unregistered pirate taxi operators (mushikashika) to tackle the transport crisis in the city.
The ongoing blitz by Bulawayo City Council (BCC) and police against errant kombi and pirate taxi operators has resulted in transport challenges for commuters which leave many stranded during peak hours.
The local authority together with the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) launched the operation against pirate taxis and kombis defying a directive to move to the upgraded Egodini bus terminus.
Speaking to the <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/regularise-pirate-taxis-council-urged/">Chronicle</a>, Bulawayo United Residents Association (BURA) chairman Winos Dube said there is a need for the council and leaders of taxi associations to meet to map a way forward. He said:
<blockquote>
Pirate taxis are also an interested party in the transport sector because, in some suburbs, residents rely on them for transport. Authorities must also try and engage them to regularise their operations.
These pirate taxi operators also pose a danger to human life as they are always speeding whenever they encounter police.
They should be registered in terms of the law and offered places of operation.
</blockquote>
The Mayor of Bulawayo, Councillor David Coltart said the local authority is not opposed to registering pirate taxis as long as they abide by the law. He said:
<blockquote>
If there are public entities interested in operating in the transport sector they have to apply and follow the necessary channels.
This is done to protect the people from harm, as most of these taxis are driven by unlicensed individuals.
They need to be properly licensed and go through a vetting system. We cannot, as a city, have an unregulated system that causes chaos and mayhem.
</blockquote>
The transport crisis has mostly affected commuters from the city’s northern and eastern suburbs which are only serviced by pirate taxis.
A Honda Fit driver, who plies the Matopos road route, Dumani Ndhlovu told the Chronicle that they are willing to cooperate with police and the council for them to regularise their operations.

Bulawayo Council Urged To Regularise "Mushikashika"

Thousands of commuters in Harare and other urban cities and towns are struggling to find transport to and fro work following the launch of an operation by the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) targetting unlicensed commuter omnibuses and pirate taxis (mushikashika).
Police launched the operation “Tame the Traffic Jungle” across all provinces of the country starting on 12 September 2023.
According to ZRP spokesman, Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi, the “operation has been necessitated by the lawlessness on the roads especially in major cities and towns”.
In Harare, some kombis were dropping off commuters before their destinations to avoid police roadblocks on major roads leading to the city centre.
Speaking to <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200016623/police-blitz-leaves-commuters-stranded">NewsDay</a>, Tinashe Muturikwa, a commuter, said the police operation was meant to punish urban dwellers for voting for the opposition CCC. He said:
<blockquote>
We are struggling to get transport. Police are just everywhere disrupting us from getting transport home.
Personally, I feel the government is punishing us for overwhelmingly voting for CCC. It’s the same with regard to electricity.
</blockquote>
Police officers have reportedly been impounding vehicles without charging drivers or vehicle owners.
Zimbabwe Union of Drivers and Conductors president Frederick Maguramhinga told NewsDay that the operation is a noble initiative but they are not happy with how it is being implemented. He said:
<blockquote>
What is happening on the ground is that even the vehicles with the necessary documentation are now being impounded.
The process of acquiring papers is difficult because we don’t have a one-stop shop, we don’t access papers online and the papers also take time to come out.
We want the operation to have phases, for instance, vehicles that are 70% compliant are different from vehicles with zero compliance.
</blockquote>
However, Passengers Association of Zimbabwe (PAZ) president Tafadzwa Goliath commended the Government for launching the blitz. He said:
<blockquote>
Government must craft a transport policy. We don’t have one currently. But the operation is good, it might bring sanity to cities.
The operation will also protect civilians from getting robbed by drivers of cars posing as mushikashika.
</blockquote>
This is not the first time that the ZRP has launched an operation to curb lawlessness on the country’s roads in recent times.
Police have previously initiated operations to bring sanity to the roads lasting two weeks at a time, but Mushikashika returned to the road as soon are the operation came to an end.
Critics argue that these operations have failed to bring lasting solutions to “traffic jungles” in towns and have only fattened the pockets of corrupt police officers.

ZRP Operation “Tame The Traffic Jungle” Leaves Commuters Stranded

A 24-year-old woman from Shurugwi narrowly escaped death after she was pushed out of a speeding Honda Fit vehicle by robbers in Gweru on Sunday night.
The woman was also stripped naked and robbed of her valuables worth US$200 including US$80 cash and an Itel cellphone.
ZRP Midlands provincial police spokesperson Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko confirmed the incident to the <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/naked-woman-thrown-out-of-speeding-honda-fit-after-robbery/">Chronicle</a>.
Insp Mahoko said the incident occurred on 26 March around 9 PM at Claybank Traffic Circle
He said the complainant boarded a white Honda fit at the Cathedral bus stop in Gweru intending to go to Shurugwi.
Inside the vehicle, he said, were four male occupants including the driver. He said:
<blockquote>
The police are investigating a robbery case in which a 24-year-old woman from Shurugwi was robbed of cash and property worth US$200.
The incident occurred on March 26 around 9 PM near Claybank roundabout in Gweru
Upon reaching Clay bank roundabout, Gweru, two male adult passengers jumped from the boot and sat in the back seat beside the complainant.
</blockquote>
It is alleged that one of the robbers allegedly hit the woman on the forehead with an iron bar and took her Itel P38 cell phone, a bag containing various clothes, cash us$80 and the clothes she was wearing.
He then pushed the complainant out of the vehicle and drove towards Shurugwi. Said Insp Mahoko:
<blockquote>
The complainant then walked to Gweru Provincial Hospital where she was assisted with clothes. A report was made at ZRP Gweru Central and the scene was attended.
No arrests were made. The total value stolen is US $200 and nothing was recovered.
</blockquote>
The suspects are still at large and members of the public who might have information leading to the arrest of the four robbers are urged to report to any nearest police station.
Insp Mahoko appealed to the public to board public service vehicles as they appear to be safer than Mushikashika vehicles.

"Mushikashika Crew" Strip Woman Naked And Throw Her Out Of Moving Vehicle

Members of the public say unregistered public transport vehicles and illegal taxis commonly known as mushikashika are causing traffic congestion and should be removed as a matter of urgency.
There has been an increase in the number of mushikashika vehicles which pick up and drop passengers at undesignated points causing traffic congestion on main roads during peak hours.
Mushikashika is illegal and the operators are always engaged in running battles with police in the city centre and this has resulted in serious accidents.
A survey by <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/surge-in-mushikashikas-disrupts-city-traffic/">The Herald</a> on Monday, 20 March revealed that along Leopold Takawira Street, behind Queen Elizabeth School, there were operators ferrying people to Westgate, Marlborough, Greencroft, Avondale, Chinhoyi, Karoi and even Kariba.
Westgate roundabout was inundated with mushikashika vehicles in the form of Toyota Vitz, Toyota Wish,Toyota Noah, blocking traffic.
Other undesignated pick-up points in the city centre included the intersection of Joseph Msika Street and Robert Mugabe Road, corner Sam Nujoma Street and Leonid Brezhnev Avenue, among other roads.
Pauline Sunganoyemoyo, said things had normalised when the government banned kombies and established the ZUPCO monopoly in 2020. Said Sunganoyemoyo:
<blockquote>
Things were getting back to normal when all public transport operators were ordered to operate under the ZUPCO franchise.
Mushikashika was low, but when the transport system was liberalised, mushikashika including kombis resurfaced and now they are a menace in the city centre.
</blockquote>
Another citizen, Freddy Dhliwayo, urged the police to eradicate mushikashika from the country’s roads. He said:
<blockquote>
The mushikashika operators are causing a lot of trouble in the city centre. Recently, a woman was nearly run over by a vehicle that was escaping from the police.
We want the police to act and remove all those operating in undesignated areas.

"ZUPCO Monopoly Was Better", Mushikashikas Irk Citizens

The Zimbabwe Passenger Company (ZUPCO) at the weekend reduced inner-city fares in all trading currencies.
In Bulawayo, ZUPCO reduced fares from ZWL$300 to ZWL$250 and from R7 to R5.
Passengers Association of Zimbabwe (PAZ) president Tafadzwa Goliati commended ZUPCO for the move saying it will provide respite to commuters. He said:
<blockquote>
This is a good move which has been taken by the Government as it will help to reduce the burden being worsened by economic hardship.
</blockquote>
Goliati, however, urged ZUPCO to increase efficiency and deploy commuter omnibuses in areas where there is a shortage.
He added that having reliable ZUPCO buses will also ensure the safety of members of the public as they won’t be forced to resort to Mushikashika (pirate taxis) where they will be at risk of being robbed. | <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/zupco-reduces-fares-2/">Chronicle</a>

ZUPCO Slashes Inner-city Fares

The City of Bulawayo is mulling a clampdown on pirate taxis, mostly Honda Fit vehicles, which are causing congestion and disorder in the central business district (CBD).
The pirate taxis pick up and drop off passengers at undesignated points resulting in unnecessary congestion.
According to the latest council minutes, Bulawayo councillors said the relevant by-laws should be enforced to remove the pirate taxis from the city’s roads. The minutes read in part:
(Ward 4) Councillor S. (Silas) Chigora applauded Council for the recently ended clean-up campaign and the enforcement of vending by-laws.
<blockquote>
He also applauded other stakeholders who had assisted the council in this operation.
He felt that enforcement should continue and also be extended to illegal pirate taxis, mostly Honda Fits. Illegal pirate taxis had invaded areas adjacent to the City Hall.
There was a lot of fouling in those areas. The relevant by-laws should be enforced. A clean City attracted investors.
</blockquote>
In response, Deputy Mayor Councillor Mlandu Ncube assured councillors that the pirate taxis menace will be attended to. He said:
<blockquote>
The enforcement would also be done on illegal pirate taxis. Councillors should also attend Committee meetings and raise issues and their suggested solutions to some of the problems affecting the city.

Bulawayo Council Mulls Clampdown On Pirate Taxis

Police in Plumtree, Matabeleland South Province, arrested 55 drivers and impounded at least 29 vehicles during a seven-day operation code name “i-number plate ingaphi/ number plate iripi” (where is the vehicle number plate?).
The operation, which covered both rural and urban areas, business centres and highways and ended on Tuesday, was aimed at curbing traffic lawlessness thereby reducing road traffic accidents.
Police said they noted that unregistered vehicles were being used to commit crimes such as armed robbery, murder, kidnapping and smuggling. Police said in a statement:
<blockquote>
It has also been observed that the mushikashika vehicles and kombis that are being contracted to ZUPCO were carrying passengers across the district and these have removed number plates to avoid being identified.
The seven-day operation which was conducted in the district resulted in 55 arrests and 29 vehicles were impounded for infringing the temporary identification card facility.
The operation led to the confiscation of those vehicles without relevant papers.
</blockquote>
Police said some motorists had become so rogue that they were defying police signals to stop at roadblocks and checkpoints.
Others were allegedly so daring that if a police officer stood in their way, they were prepared to knock them down. | <a href="https://www.sundaynews.co.zw/55-arrested-29-plumtree-vehicles-impounded/">The Sunday News</a>

Police Impound 29 Vehicles, Arrest 55 Drivers In Plumtree

A speeding wanted robber who was driving a stolen vehicle allegedly caused the road accident that claimed six lives in Mutare recently.
According to <a href="https://www.manicapost.co.zw/robber-killed-in-accident-with-stolen-vehicle/">The Manica Post</a>, one of the Honda Fit vehicles that were involved in the accident that killed six people near Mutare Teachers’ College on Sunday morning had been stolen in Chipinge the previous week.
The mastermind of the robbery was driving the car and he died on the spot.
Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) spokesperson in Manicaland Province, Inspector Nobert, Muzondo confirmed the development.
He said that the driver of the stolen vehicle was Tawanda Chitambo (31) of Chikanga 1 in Mutare.
Chitambo had stolen the Honda Fit he was driving from Takudzwa Ngqobi (20) in Chipinge on 29 August.
Insp Muzondo further revealed that police were hunting for Chitambo’s two accomplices in the robbery who were still at large. He said:
<blockquote>
During enquiries to establish the registered owner of the Honda Fit, it was established that the vehicle had been stolen from a taxi operator plying the Mt Selinda-Chipinge route.
Investigations revealed that Mr Ngqobi was hired by the three suspects to ferry them to Mutakura Dam Turn-off.
They lied to the complainant that they wanted to visit a sick relative. The complainant agreed and charged them US$10.
When they arrived at their intended destination, the suspects ordered the complainant to drive further into the bush where they robbed him of his car, US$80 and a cellphone. They tied him up and fled from the scene.
The complainant later freed himself and made a police report.
</blockquote>
Chitambo reportedly started using the stolen vehicle as a pirate tax and was killed in the accident on 4 September after he had picked up passengers in Mutare.
