Attorney-General Mr Johannes Tomana yesterday said although this was expensive, time had come for Zimbabweans to challenge the illegal sanctions.

“They are targeting any transactions, especially in the US currency as they are processed in their system,” he said.

A MAZVIKADEI businessman was on Tuesday night shot dead following an exchange of gunfire with four robbers who had abducted his neighbour.
The armed men reportedly posed as Criminal Investigations Department operatives investigating a case of theft of a laptop before making off with valuables worth about US$3 000.
They shot and killed Mr Allan Keith Nicholson (61) who had teamed up with two colleagues in the Mazvikadei area in a bid to rescue Mr Timothy Morgan who had been abducted.
According to police, the four who are still at large, pounced on House No 196 Gold Dust, Mazvikadei, in Banket at around 3pm and identified themselves as detectives.
