By Political Reporter- Zanu PF Harare provincial chairperson Goodwills Masimirembwa is not yet done with Vice President Constantino Chiwenga, and this time, he wants him to account for the death of his aide who his supporters allegedly killed.

Masimirembwa’s aide, Tyson Mashoko died following a brutal petrol bomb attack by suspected Chiwenga supporters, just days before the recent Zanu PF conference in Bulawayo, where Chiwenga emerged victorious, further intensifying factional battles within the party.

The petrol bomb destroyed property while the guard, who was manning the premises, sustained severe burns as a result of the attack.
He was admitted to hospital, where he died on Friday morning.

His body was Saturday taken to his rural home in Masvingo for burial on Sunday.

A post mortem was conducted on Friday while police are still compiling the forensic and laboratory report as investigations continue.

Masimirembwa told reporters Saturday that “Tyson Mashoko was a young man, 31 years old, full of life, in good health and was on duty on the fateful night when these evil people came to throw a petrol bomb at my offices.
“They doused him with petrol, set him on fire, he received burns over 80 percent of his body, and the burns were between second and third degree burns, and he succumbed to those injuries.
“And today, we are taking him to his resting place, Mushagashi No.89 farm in Masvingo province. This is so tragic, and these heartless criminals, I hope that they will be arrested and be brought to justice.”
Recently, National police spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi said more details would be released in due course.
The petrol bomb was allegedly thrown by an eight-man gang travelling in a three-vehicle convoy.
Police said the motive for the attack remains unknown and investigations were continuing.
A team of police experts was deployed to investigate the matter.
