The government this week said every cent from diamond proceeds must be accounted for with all those found on the wrong side of the law facing prosecution.
Mines and Mining Development minister Walter Chidhakwa said all cases of corruption including those that took place before he was appointed new Mines minister would be dealt with to ensure transparency and accountability in the sector.
He has already met diamond players, among them officials from the Zimbabwe Mining Development Corporation and Marange Resources to read the riot act and outline his vision for the ministry.
Chidhakwa has demanded a comprehensive report on the alleged corrupt deals by former Zimbabwe Mining Development Corporation chairperson Godwills Masimirembwa and others fingered in a $6 million bribery scam.
Chidhakwa said yesterday investigations into the matter were in progress.
