POLICE in Harare say they are holding two men after lurid mobile snaps of them kissing were leaked.
Police were called to a phone repair shop at the Gulf Complex shopping centre on Monday after employees stumbled on the pictures, New Zimbabwe reported.
A phone had been left to recharge at the shop by a man identified by staff only as Andrew â€" a shop assistant at a nearby store.
Harare police spokesman Inspector James Sabau said: "I can confirm that we have arrested two men who are assisting officers with their investigations following the discovery of a set of images of a sexual nature. No charges have been brought at present."
Police say the men are likely to be charged with crimes against morality, specifically sodomy. They face up to a year in jail if convicted.
