IF you had braaied goat meat in the western suburbs of Bulawayo recently, chances are it could have been stolen in Nyamandlovu.

Police arrested four men in connection with stealing 20 goats, three speakers, one amplifier, five 2 in 1 blankets and a 20kg bag of maize from the Nyamandlovu area. All stolen goods and property was valued at $790.

Only a few hides of the stolen goats were found.

"The suspects stole more than twenty goats and they would dispense them in various suburbs. Police are therefore appealing to members of the public to desist from buying goat or any kind of meat from the streets but rather visit registered abattoirs or butcheries," said Bulawayo Metropolitan Province police spokesperson Inspector Precious Simango.

The suspects are Promise Sibanda (21) of Entumbane suburb, Clifford Moyo (25) of Mpopoma suburb, Cabangani Gumbo (32) of Sauerstown suburb and Duduza (38) Tshabangu of Mpopoma suburb.

Those who lost property to thieves should contact the Officer in Charge Crime prevention Unit Bulawayo West, Inspector Maphosa on  (09) 880995 or any nearest police station.
