Own Correspondent|The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (Zacc) says it is currently working on over 600 dockets for prosecution of people accused of corruption including judges, ministers, Members of Parliament and company executives.

Zacc chairperson Justice Loice Matanda-Moyo, however, said the anti-graft body was not happy with the slow pace by the NPA in pushing prosecutions.

She said of the over 600 dockets they had opened, at least 100 have been fully investigated, with 74 involving high-profile figures.

“Zacc investigates and then sends the papers to the NPA, but the Attorney-General is being brought on board to help fight corruption. We are bringing on board as many people as possible,” she said.

“There are high-profile cases which include ministers, MPs, judges, CEOs (chief executive officers) and MDs (managing directors); we are targeting everyone involved in corruption and we will investigate everyone. We urge all those with evidence which may lead to convictions to come forward.

“There should be convictions in court, but we need prosecution (NPA) to up their game. Once we start seeing convictions in court, it gives public confidence that we are not just doing a catch and release game.”
