ZACC Targets Harare Town Clerk's Four Wives
The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) has seized cars from imprisoned Harare town clerk Hosiah Chisango’s four wives.
The anti-graft unit believes the vehicles were purchased by Chisango from proceeds of corrupt activities at Town House.
Chisango is also reportedly building a mansion in Mt Pleasant for one of his wives. ZACC is reportedly targeting the house. A source said:
It’s very true, we have taken a Toyota Fortuner vehicle from Chisango’s third wife and Mercedes-Benz from his fourth wife.
We are also targeting a Mt Pleasant mansion, which is currently under construction.
The Mt Pleasant house could simply be one of the best houses in the suburb, but we believe the money came from proceeds from HCC corrupt activities.
Mayor Jacob Mafume could neither deny nor confirm the developments, saying he is not in a position to comment on such matters.

Meanwhile, Zanu PF says all those who commit crimes, including its members will be jailed. The party’s director for information Farai Marapira insists that jails are not only for opposition activists. Marapira said:
Jails are not set on partisan matters. We also have some Zanu PF members who are in jail. If you commit a crime, you are arrested and this is clear.
We have several people from Zanu PF who are also in jail and it is not fair for the opposition party to point fingers at us because we don’t force anyone to commit a crime.
Marapira’s response came after opposition CCC spokesperson Promise Mkwananzi said his party’s members and human rights activists were arrested without committing offences.
Mkwananzi said:
We are continuing to see arrests of our members and this has become too much.
We are even finding it difficult to attend national programmes like the Heroes Day celebrations because we do not have a guarantee that our members are safe.
