Bogus police officers on trial for kidnapping

The trial of a Harare man accused of kidnapping and bashing a former work subordinate in a bid to stop the victim from becoming a whistle-blower in a fraud case, has opened at the local magistrates court.

Simbarashe Emmanuel Martin Rondozai (38) and four other unknown suspects who are still on the run, allegedly committed the offences in May 2025.

Rondozai appeared before Harare provincial magistrate Tapiwa Kuhudzai charged  under Section 93 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act.
