Acting President Phelekezela Mphoko on Monday reportedly summoned members of the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (Zacc) and roasted them over their plot to arrest Higher Education minister Jonathan Moyo on corruption allegations.

Zacc spokesperson, Phyllis Chikundura, confirmed the meeting, but declined to disclose details.

This came as Vice-President Emmerson Mnangagwa told Parliament yesterday that President Robert Mugabe was the only Zimbabwean citizen immune to prosecution.

Moyo has since last week been under the public spotlight following a foiled bid by Zacc investigators to arrest him on allegations of siphoning close to $400 000 from the Zimbabwe Manpower Development Fund (Zimdef) to finance various Zanu PF activities, including acquiring bicycles for traditional leaders in his Tsholotsho North constituency.
