A Harare police officer allegedly terrorised Masowe eChishanu apostolic leaders in Budiriro demanding cash at gunpoint.

Nansel Chikwati, 37, appeared before Harare magistrate Mr Adonia Masawi, facing armed robbery, robbery, assault and theft of trust property charges.

According to Herald, on May 15 around 3pm, Chikwati and two others, still at large, went to Masowe eChishanu apostolic sect in Budiriro 4.

It is alleged that Kudzionera Gudo was prophesying to the congregants when the trio approached him.

They ordered him into their blue Mazda 323 vehicle and drove to Mufakose.

They allegedly started demanding cash and started assaulting him.

They searched him and stole $100, a Nokia cellphone before dropping him off.

It is alleged that on December 17 around 11am, Agnes Munangati went to Harare Civil Court to pay fees for attachment of property.

Munangati met Chikwati at the court and after realising that he is a police officer, she handed him $370.

She was advised to come back later for her receipt but she never located Chikwati afterwards.

It is further alleged that on December 28, at Budiriro 5 Masowe eChishanu shrine, Chikwati approached Ignatius Nenzou.

Using the same modus operandi they ordered him into their vehicle and assaulted him after realising that he had no money.
