Correspondent|THE Zimbabwe National Army (ZNA) has notified members of the public that its officers will move door-to-door in some neighbourhoods in search of stolen army uniforms.

The soldiers will also be on the lookout for “other resembling clothing items”.

The operation will be mounted starting this coming weekend, according to the statement dated 20 February 2019.

Justifying the search, the army says this has been necessitated by a recent spike in armed robberies, intimidation, assault and other crimes which have been pinned on soldiers as the perpetrators would be wearing military camouflage.

The army further advises members of the public to voluntarily surrender such items to the nearest police station or army camp before the search begins.
