Armed Zimbabwe police yesterday raided the residence of MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirais chief of staff Abisha Nyanguwo in Harare in search of arms of mass destruction before impounding an Isuzu double cab vehicle.
The officers claimed the raid was in connection with the bombing of Zanu-PF's Gweru offices in December 2011.
No-one was arrested but the impounded vehicle was taken to Mabelreign Police Station.
The police went to Nyanguwo's house in the morning but were denied entry by his lawyer because they did not have a search warrant. The police officers called for reinforcement and police officers from Harare's Law and Order Section arrived with a search warrant.
They searched the house but failed to find any weapons. The police then impounded his vehicle on allegations that it had been used to bomb the Gweru offices.
Early this year, police in Gweru arrested three MDC-T members, Shepherd Marange, Douglas Tsuro and Silas Mutendeudzwa on charges of bombing the Zanu-PF offices but were released later.
