Wilson Madzudzu (35) and Fanuel Munatsi (25), from Epworth in Harare, were arrested by ZRP officers after they stole, skinned and ferried away from the meat from the carcass of the beast they had stolen from ZRP.

The arrests were confirmed by Mashonaland East Provincial police spokesperson Inspector Tendai Mwanza who said:

I confirm the arrest of the suspects from Epworth, who have since implicated their colleague who lives near the police farm. Stock thieves are a menace, whose conduct deserves harsh punishment because they are bent on derailing economic gains. As police, we will always be ready to assist and arrest stock thieves and make them meet their fate in the courts.
