Japanese car imports face new Zimbabwe ban
Farirai Machivenyika Senior Reporter
SOME second-hand vehicles being imported from Japan might be contaminated with radioactive material released into the atmosphere when the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant was damaged by a tsunami in March last year.
Government has begun working on monitoring mechanisms to ensure vehicles imported into Zimbabwe are safe.
Transport, Communications and Infrastructure Development Minister Nicholas Goche yesterday told the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Transport, Communications and Infrastructure Development that a Zimbabwean resident in Japan had written to the Government notifying them of the possible contamination.
The Minister said this following an inquiry by Glen Norah legislator Mr Gift Dzirutwe who sought to know what the Government was doing to curb the importation of contaminated cars.
There are reports that some vehicles were coming from the affected region.
“The fear of radiation is there. There is a Zimbabwean who lives in Japan who wrote to us and the Ministry of Industry and Commerce that before the vehicles are imported from Japan, there be a mechanism to check on that,” he said.
No Member of Parliament immune to prosecution: AG
Felex Share Herald Reporter
ATTORNEY-GENERAL Mr Johannes Tomana says no legislator is immune to prosecution and those who abused Constituency Development Funds are not off the hook.
He said his decision to halt the arrest of lawmakers by the Anti-Corruption Commission did not mean they could get away with it.
Mr Tomana yesterday said all MPs across the political divide will be arrested if they abused the funds.
He said he had decided to halt “in abeyance” investigations and arrests of the legislators because the Ministry of Constitutional and Parliamentary Affairs and ACC were coming to his office in a “clumsy” way.
He said his office did not tolerate “piecemeal” cases.
“They should do a complex job such that at the end of the day no one should say they were being targeted or isolated.
“These investigations are being born out of an audit and it speaks logic for us to say an audit should be completed first and we can then pick out all the culprits at one time.”
Out of the 210 constituencies countrywide, only 65 have been audited.
Mr Tomana said the ACC had received only reports from four constituencies.
