By Farai Maguwu| Today Police from Bambazonke went to Mashukashuka to record statements from witnesses. The accused officer, an Inspector was present in the company of an Assistant Commissioner whom we named in 2009 as one of the most brutal killers and torturers during Operation Hakudzokwi. Really shocked he is still in Marange, 10 years on!
As the Bambazonke Police officers recorded eye witness accounts, the Ass Comm was drinking beer at a nearby shop. The accused threatened witnesses on countless times. What was also bizarre is that the officer recording the statements was repeatedly disrupted by the Ass Comm who frequently called him to to the verandah of the pub where he was drinking.
Finally one of the officers from Bambazonke privately advised the complainant to make a complaint at Murahwa Provincial Police HQ, saying their hands were tied because they are very junior to the person they were investigating who also apparently enjoyed the protection of his superior, the Ass Comm. Our legal practitioner is working on the letter of complaint to be submitted tomorrow
