The ZRP categorically denied these allegations, calling them false and urging the public to disregard the misleading information.

“The Zimbabwe Republic Police dismisses social media postings alleging that the government of Zimbabwe has banned or prohibited public gatherings due to the forthcoming SADC Summit.
