By A Correspondent| Former Finance Ministry Communications Taskforce agent, Acie Lumumba was not arrested as claimed in social circles.

Gerald Mutumanje’s lawyer, Advocate Webster Chinamora confirmed during the day that his client had not been arrested by the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC). He said “contrary to frenzied speculation last week, my client was called to ZACC not as criminal suspect. He is required as a witness in ZACC’s enquiries arising from the suspension of four RBZ directors.

“I accompanied Mr Mutumanje to ZACC this afternoon and it was made explicitly clear that there was no criminal interest in my client.

“After a meeting with three ZACC investigators, we left after electing to provide a written witness statement.”
