It is reported that on July 23, around 6pm two women from Zimre Park in Harare were preparing to conduct an all night prayer at Muchinjikwa Mountain in Chinamhora when an unknown person emerged from the bush holding a knife and a stone in his hands.

He allegedly ordered the two complainants to comply with his instructions. It is further alleged that the suspect tied their hands before taking two cellphones, a black satchel and a combined US$36 from the victims.

He said the rape victim was taken to Parirenyatwa Hospital in Harare for medical examination and investigations were underway.

He appealed to the public for information that may lead to the arrest of the suspect.

Inspector Chazovachiyi also urged members of the public to respect lockdown protocols and conduct their prayers at home without public gatherings.

Public gatherings including churches were banned when the government imposed the level 4 lockdown to curb the transmission of the coronavirus.
