Vice-President Kembo Mohadi has not been censured for allegedly threatening to his kill his ex-wife and damaging her property because no police report has been made a week after the shocking incident, it has been revealed.
Mohadi allegedly stormed Senator Tambudzani Mohadi’s Beitbridge home where he hacked three doors using an axe before towing away his former wife’s three cars.
At least 25 police officers witnessed the incident, but refused to take a report from the under- siege senator.
The Beitbridge senator argued she would only sign, as both witness and victim, a statement by the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) officers who were present during the violent attack on her person and property on Saturday last week.
She said what police were requesting her to do was like a policeman who sees someone being killed and waits for a report from the victim.
“They were the witnesses, they have an eyewitness account. They must take action based on that. A crime was committed in their presence,” she said in an interview.
Police spokesperson Paul Nyathi referred all queries about the Mohadi case to the Information ministry.
Women Affairs minister Sithembiso Nyoni said she would not comment on the matter, which she said was private.
“I was out of the country when this happened, but it is a private family thing. It also involves the VP,” she said.
