Undercover Briliance: ZRP Detectives Applauded After Posing As Couples To Solve Theft Case

In Mashonaland East, highly skilled ZRP detectives orchestrated an audacious undercover operation to arrest a stock theft cartel. Their approach involved disguising themselves as two couples, integrating into the local community, and even attending masowe at a shrine close to suspect’s home.

This immersive strategy enabled the detectives to gather evidence on the suspects, leading to the apprehension of the cartel’s leaders. Their efforts led to successful arrests and convictions.

In response to a surge in stock thefts in Mashonaland East, Superintendent Kanhiriri formed a specialized team comprising two male detectives and two female officers. The team identified Percy Mudyiwa as the key figure in these thefts, operating from his farm and using a grocery store to launder the proceeds.
