A Ruwa Local Board Municipal Police Officer, Lucia Sithole (44), was arrested on Friday, September 27, by members of the Southern Africa Regional Anti-Corruption Organisation (SARACO) for allegedly demanding and accepting a bribe from a commuter omnibus driver.
According to a memo addressed to the SARACO Chief Corruption Prevention Intelligence Officer by an Assistant Deputy Director of Operations, Sithole now faces charges of criminal abuse of office as defined by Section 174 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act [Chapter 9:23].
The allegations are that on September 27, 2024, at approximately 8:20 AM, Sithole and two other municipal police officers were on duty conducting traffic enforcement along the Harare-Mutare highway near the George shopping Centre in Ruwa. Reads the memo:
<blockquote>
A Nissan Caravan commuter omnibus registration No AFE 7538 travelling from Harare to Goromonzi stopped at the market Bus stop along the highway and suddenly a municipal traffic officer emerged and placed a steel bar in the wheel of the commuter omnibus.
</blockquote>
All passengers were ordered to disembark and three municipal police officers jumped inside and ordered the driver to proceed to their council yard. As this was happening the other male officer was writing a fine ticket.
It is alleged that the driver of the kombi and the three municipal police officers left for the council yard, and along the way just near the shops, Sithole asked for twenty dollars from the driver.
The driver said that he had US$10 but she rejected it and insisted on $20.
After the driver gave her two US$10 notes, Sithole then instructed him to make a U-turn and drop them off immediately. Reads the memo:
<blockquote>
The driver drove back to where he had dropped his passengers and advised the three Southern Africa Regional Anti Corruption Organisation members who had earlier on introduced themselves to him before boarding the commuter omnibus at Fourth Street.
</blockquote>
The three members of SARACO contacted their female counterpart nearby and approached the municipal police officers.
They requested that the officers empty their pockets of all cash, but Sithole refused to comply.
Subsequently, the SARACO members searched her and discovered US$45 in her shirt pockets. Two of the US$10 bills matched the photographs taken by the kombi conductor before the money was handed over to the driver.
Sithole was then arrested and taken to Ruwa Police Station, where Chief Inspector Tinarwo was informed.
A docket was opened for violating Section 174 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act, registered under ZRP Ruwa RRB number 6160549.

Ruwa Municipal Police Officer Caught In Bribery Sting By SARACO

The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) is looking into cases of armed robbery in Bulawayo and Harare, where businesspeople were specifically targeted.
In Bulawayo, an investigation is underway for a robbery that occurred on Grayville Road near Arlington Court, Ascot. An unnamed businessman lost US$29,000 cash to the robbers. In Harare, the unnamed businessman lost over US$10,000. A police report read:

Trio Intercepts, Robs Shop Manager Of US$29,000 Cash In Bulawayo

The Harare Metropolitan provincial authorities have ordered the closure of all unlicensed and unclean food outlets in the four local authorities of Greater Harare as Harare reports 307 cases of cholera in various suburbs, ranging from overcrowded Mbare to leafy Mount Pleasant.
The metropolitan province now has the second-highest number of cholera cases since the outbreak began three months ago, with Manicaland reporting the highest number of cases. Other provinces that have reported cases include Matabeleland South, Mashonaland West, Mashonaland Central, and Masvingo. The province is implementing a range of prevention measures, including the closure of dubious food outlets. Harare Metropolitan Provincial and Devolution Permanent Secretary Mr Tafadzwa Muguti said:
<blockquote>
During this outbreak all local authorities have been directed to stop all unlicenced shops and unclean food outlets from operating in open spaces.
All shops, restaurants and food outlets to have clean toilets with running water. 
</blockquote>
The local authorities are Harare City Council, Chitungwiza Municipality, Epworth Local Board and Ruwa Local Board.
The Harare Metropolitan authorities have called on schools and office buildings to ensure that toilets have running water and soap. The area is facing two major problems related to water and sanitation.
The proliferation of unplanned and illegal settlements without sewers and piped water, and the run-down state of Harare City Council’s water purification plants, which operate at only half their capacity. The council is attempting to rectify these issues by closing down contaminated wells and distributing non-food items to prevent the spread of disease.
Cholera outbreaks continue to plague Zimbabwe. In Manicaland, village health workers are conducting disease surveillance and education, while officials are monitoring public gatherings to contain the spread. Mashonaland West is struggling to provide medical attention to a community rooted in religious belief, leading to resistance to scientific solutions.
Health experts are providing water samples, aqua tabs, and disinfection, and raising cholera awareness. The government has activated civil protection units, provided supplies, and offered refresher training for health workers.

Harare Closes Unlicensed Food Outlets As Cholera Outbreak Hits 307 Cases

A 13-year-old schoolgirl from Ruwa was allegedly raped by her teacher from Mandley Park Primary School and by her aunt’s neighbour.
The girl’s teacher has not been named but her aunt’s neighbour was identified as Simbarashe Tarisai.
The 13-year-old girl was taken for a medical examination and the results showed that she had contracted a sexually-transmitted illness (STI).
Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) spokesperson in Harare Province, Inspector Luckmore Chakanza, confirmed the development to <a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/rogue-neighbour-teacher-repeatedly-rapes-girl-13/">H-Metro</a>. He said:
<blockquote>
The girl was staying with her aunt. On December 26, the girl was at home with the accused, and her aunt was away at work.
The neighbour was reported to have invited the girl to his bedroom where he raped her without protection.
She went to school and when she returned at 2 pm, the neighbour raped her twice and threatened to kill her if she told anyone.
On December 27, the neighbour fled to Debvu Village 6 in Chinhoyi.
The matter came to light when the girl filed a case of abuse against her teacher at ZRP Epworth.
A medical report indicated that the girl had an STI and, when questioned about how she got infected, she disclosed that she was sexually abused by Simbarashe Tarisai.

<h2>How To Prevent Rape</h2>
According to <a href="https://www.healthyplace.com/abuse/rape/rape-prevention-how-to-prevent-rape">HealthyPlace</a>, women can learn about rape prevention and use this knowledge to help them stay safe in many situations where sexual assault could occur. Some of the tips are:
<ul>
<li>Listen to your intuition when alone – stay aware of your surroundings, avoid isolated public areas, walk with determination even if you’re lost, trust your gut, keep your cell phone charged and with you, avoid going somewhere alone with a person you don’t know well, don’t use music headphones when walking alone.</li>
<li>Reduce risk in social situations – Go to parties and social events with a group of friends and stay with the group. Do not leave your drink unattended.</li>
<li>Don’t reveal too much on social media – Turn off the location feature of mobile apps on your cell phone before going out as would-be sexual predators can use these tools to find you.</li>
</ul>
<h2>What to Do When Being Raped</h2>
<ul>
<li>State clearly and unequivocally that you do not want to engage in sex of any kind with the person. </li>
<li>Arrange a special code word with a close friend or family member that you can say if talking on the phone to them to indicate that you are in a dangerous situation and need help.</li>
<li>Make up an excuse as to why you need to leave or that you are having your period, or even that you have a sexually transmitted disease.</li>
<li>Look for an escape route or way to get out of the room.</li>
<li>Call attention to yourself by screaming or making a scene and yelling for help.</li>
<li>If someone actually attacks you, scratch him with your fingernails and pull his hair, bite, and kick – do anything to make him let go even for a second and then run. </li>
<li>As a last resort, try to humanize yourself in the eyes of your attacker. Try to make the attacker see you as a person rather than objectify you. Talk about your family, your kids, your mother. Tell him he is better than the way he is behaving.</li>
<li>If your attacker is armed with a gun or knife, the above tactics may not work effectively… If you choose to physically attack an armed aggressor, your action must be unexpected, sudden, and intensely painful. Target his most vulnerable spots, such as testicles, eye sockets, instep, or windpipe with a lethal intention.</li>
</ul>

Armed robbers pounced on Mhangami’s residence at a clause in Njiva Crescent, along Chiremba Road near Ruwa Rehab in <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Ruwa">Ruwa</a> and robbed a senior citizen who resides there.
A Ruwa resident privy to the information said the robbery took place on Thursday 13 January 2023 (today) at around 0730 hours. One resident who alerted the Ruwa community reported:
<blockquote>
The robbers accessed the residence through the main gate in Chiremba road (corner Chinamaropa road) at around 7:30am this morning.

The government has applauded the Ruwa Local Board, which is led by the opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC), for being corrupt-free and for creating thousands of jobs.
The Ruwa Local Board has nine councillors and they are all from CCC. The local authority does not have any pending cases before the courts.
The Ruwa Local Board won three awards at the inaugural Harare Metropolitan provincial awards, which honoured residents, businesspersons and people who excelled in the fields of arts, sports and others in 2022.
Ruwa competed with Harare City Council, Chitungwiza City Council, and Epworth Local Board.
It was voted the best Harare Metropolitan Council, its mayor Kizito Chivafa was voted the best mayor, and the board also got the top investment award.
Addressing stakeholders at the awards ceremony over the weekend, Harare Metropolitan provincial secretary Tafadzwa Muguti said:
<blockquote>
Two years ago l called all town clerks and mayors into one room and l explained the main areas to get development, and one of the major issues was to attract investment.
In a space of two years, Ruwa has attracted US$40 million in investments, has zero corruption cases before the courts, had a budget for roads, and did what other councils have failed to do — fixing roads for investments.
Ruwa has created over a thousand jobs, the mayor is very young and they have nine councillors. We want the other three local authorities to challenge the Ruwa Local Board.

A 17-year-old was hit by a train at the 253 km peg, Ruwa on 29 October 2022 at around 0755 hours while walking along the Harare-Mutare railway line putting on earphones.
A Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) statement seen by Pindula News warns members of the public against putting on headphones or earphones while walking on the roads or crossing railway lines.
Police say this may diminish the ability to perceive or hear, thereby increasing the likelihood of being struck by a motor vehicle or train.
Meanwhile, police in Harare recorded a serious hit-and-run road traffic accident where a man (32) was run over on the left by a Toyota Sienta vehicle, registration number AFW 9839, at the intersection of Robert Mugabe and Julius Nyerere Way.

12-Hour Power Blackout In Greater Ruwa As ZETDC Maintains Infrastructure

A health hazard is looming in Ruwa with the Ruwa Local Board admitting that it is discharging raw sewage into Ruwa River due to a shortage of land dedicated for treatment of sewage.
Ruwa Local Board secretary Kumbirai Madanhi said that there is an urgent need for more land to avoid a health disaster. He said:
<blockquote>We have a challenge on sewer reticulation, it is flowing into the Ruwa River and we are having a geographical challenge.
It is a potential risk area which needs to be addressed, but unfortunately, we do not have land to use for that purpose.
… We have been putting pressure on the Ministry of Local Government, Public Works and National Housing, as well as the Ministry of Lands on the issue.</blockquote>
