The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) says it found 210 old helmets resembling those used by the Police and 41 others used by Harare Municipal Police stashed in a basement of a building in Harare. In a statement on its social media page, the police said:
The Zimbabwe Republic Police is investigating circumstances in which 210 old helmets resembling those used by the Police and 41 others used by Harare Municipal Police were found hidden in a basement office at Robinson House, Harare.
Funny how the police always “find things” on the eve of every threatened public demonstration
Those helmets would have been put there by police for zanu youth league supporters to wear so the could impersonate police and claim the were opposition demonstrators so the army could be brought in to open fire with live ammunition on innocent civillians
It’s true only the police and army have access to that kind of equipment there are probably some aks lying around too
STOLEN – and the police didn’t even know it.
