The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission has confirmed the arrest of Harare City Council deputy Mayor Rosemary Muronda and former Zanu-PF Harare South MP shadreck Mashayamombe
Contrary to widespread social media claims and earlier reports suggesting Harare City Council has been arrested together with Mashayamombe , the Commission has clarified that Mayor Mafume was only summoned to provide clarification on specific administrative matters and has not been arrested.
“The Mayor’s appearance at the Commission was part of an ongoing investigative process and is distinct from the criminal proceedings involving other high-ranking officials.” Said an inside source at ZACC
