Harare magistrate, Barbara Chimboza has issued a warrant of arrest for former Harare City footballer, Misheck Mburayi and his alleged accomplice, Muneishe Mazarire, who failed to appear in court on Friday to stand trial on charges of attempted robbery and impersonating a police officer. The two were released on $50 bail last month.
On June 14, Mburayi, Mazarire and their four alleged accomplices; Munyaradzi Tirivange, Neville Munangati, Carrington Marasha and Farai Mupundumani approached an illegal commuter omnibus rank in Harare wielding metal spikes and a fines ticket book posing as traffic police officers. They allegedly threw a spike underneath a commuter omnibus and ordered the driver to drive towards Harare Central Police Station.
The driver allegedly switched off the engine and asked them to produce their police identity cards. When they failed to do so, rank marshals effected a citizen’s arrest on Mburayi while his alleged accomplices ran away.
