Plain clothed police officers in Bulawayo reportedly recently harassed a kombi driver over unclear circumstances  and later accused him of assaulting them.

Zimbabwe Peace Project reported that at Egodini Bus terminus Bulawayo Central constituency, two policemen who were in plainclothes forcefully got into a commuter omnibus which belongs to Mr S. Mafu while the latter was dropping off school children at a designated site.

"It is said that the two jumped into his car and began harassing Mafu to stop and surrender the car. Mafu was manhandled and forcefully removed from the car. As he was being harassed, it is reported bus rank touts joined and began fighting back to rescue Mafu, while the latter had been locked in the commuter omnibus. Mafu now faces charges of assaulting two policemen and is set to appear in court," ZPP reported.
