Police shooting probe deepens

Lloyd Gumbo Herald Reporter
ZANU-PF will investigate if there are some of its members who took part in the shooting of a municipal policeman while demolishing illegal car sales.
Harare provincial party spokesperson Cde Claudius Mutero said at the weekend that any member who would be implicated would face disciplinary action.

This comes at a time when Local Government, Rural and Urban Development Minister Ignatius Chombo has said council has a right to demolish illegal structures.
Some sections of the media claimed that some Zanu-PF officials took part in the disturbances that saw one assailant firing gunshots at municipal police.

“We are a law-abiding party and we are going to investigate and if we find that there were some party people involved in the disturbances, they will be disciplined,” Cde Mutero said.

“We don’t want anyone to put the name of the party into disrepute. As a party, we encourage our people not to violate the law.
