Police in Mashonaland East have launched a manhunt for female rapists who pounced on a 20-year-old man in Wedza over the weekend.

Acting provincial police spokesperson Assistant Inspector Tendai Mwanza confirmed the incident which occurred on July 6 at the 117km peg along the Harare-Wedza Road, in which the rapists used a kombi in the operation.

According to the police, a 20-year-old male adult (name withheld) from Chief Svosve Village in Wedza boarded a commuter omnibus from Makoni in Chitungwiza to Wedza at around 1920hrs.

It is reported that in the commuter omnibus were five men and six women who were all seated and the complainant occupied the back seat before paying $5.

The occupants then blindfolded the complainant with a black cloth and injected him on the buttock with an unknown chemical.

It is reported that the male occupants disembarked leaving the complainant with the female occupants who then forcefully had sex with the complainant except for one of them who refused.

It is further alleged that the women again injected him and he became unconscious following which they dumped him in a drain.
