By Own Correspondent| The Zimbabwe National Army has distanced itself from a statement alleging that the army is set to conduct home searches for stolen army uniforms

Army spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Alphios Makotore said the ZNA had never issued a statement to that effect.

He said:

“That statement which is circulating is not authentic; it’s a false statement. Anything which comes from the ZNA has a signature to show that it came from us but that statement doesn’t have one.

Whoever circulated that fake statement about the ZNA searching stolen uniforms in residential areas is going to be charged because that’s a big crime and having an army uniform is a crime as well.”
