Chikurubi superintendent robbed

Chikurubi superintendent robbed

In a bold and audacious heist, a group of thieves targeted the Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison Camp, making off with a substantial sum of US$2,500 in cash.

The daring robbery took place in the residence of Superintendent Gloria Tamanikwa, who serves as the Officer-in-Charge at the Chikurubi Female Prison.

The incident unfolded on a quiet Sunday evening while Superintendent Tamanikwa was engrossed in a television show in her lounge.

The cash loss was discovered when she went into her bedroom around midnight, only to find it ransacked and her suitcase, which contained the money, left open.

Police believed that the thieves gained access by forcing open one of the windows. The incident is now actively under investigation.

In a separate incident, security officer Joseph Murorigi, stationed at ZRP Mabelreign Camp, fell victim to thieves who broke into ZRP Warren Park Crèche. The burglars made away with a 9kg gas tank and groceries. The incident was reported to the Warren Park Police Station under report number RRB 5700795.

Meanwhile, other parts of the country were not spared from such criminal activities. A shop manager in Bulawayo fell prey to a trio of robbers who intercepted him as he was returning home.

The robbers seized an astonishing US$29,000 hidden in the trunk of his car before vanishing without a trace. Law enforcement officials are actively investigating the incident, which occurred along Grayville Road near Arlington Court, Ascot, on Saturday.

In a harrowing incident in Harare, a family residing on Nzou Crescent, Windsor, Ruwa, became the target of another ruthless gang.

Armed with a stone and a small axe, the criminals made off with US$10,610, 1,700 Zambian Kwacha, R2,500, 50 British Pounds, and 200,000 Tanzanian Shillings. Additionally, they took a laptop, four cell phones, five pairs of tennis shoes, and two school bags.

National police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi issued a stern warning to the public, advising them against carrying or storing large sums of cash in their homes or businesses
