Suspected State security agents are reportedly visiting the home of one-man play  producer titled Missing Diamonds, I Need My Share,  development said to be harassment.

Theatre producer and actor Silvanos Mudzvova said he was living in fear, claiming his home had been frequented by an unidentified vehicle.

Mudzvova said the Toyota single cab had frequented his home for the past four days. He has reported the matter to the police in his neighbourhood, but claimed the police said they were unable to open a docket on the matter.

He filed police report on Wednesday at  Harare Central Police Station.

 He said he managed to take a picture of  the number plate ABI 6568 a d4d single cab without back number plate.

"Knowing how things are in Zimbabwe, I am now living in fear that something might happen either to me or my family," Mudzvova said.

Mudzvova was recently arrested outside Parliament Building, as he was staging a one-man play titled Missing Diamonds, I Need My Share, which he said was inspired by disclosures made by President Robert Mugabe that the country had lost $15 billion from diamond revenue.

He took to social media platform, Facebook and wrote: "Colleagues and friends just to let you know, this vehicle with number plate ABI 6568 a d4d single cab without back number plate has been coming to my house every morning.

"So today (yesterday) with the assistance of a brave neighbour we managed to take a photo of the number plate. I tried making a report at the nearest police station, but the officers could not open a report for me. So am left with no option except to let you know of my situation."
