Gilbert Mhere, a prominent member of the Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO) in Mpandawana Town, died early yesterday morning in a car accident on the Gutu-Roy highway.

Mhere, who was 37, sustained deep head injuries and died instantly when the silver Toyota Hilux Reno he was driving veered off the road and overturned several times at the 52 km mark, eventually landing on its wheels.

At the time of the accident, Mhere was alone, driving towards Roy Business Centre.

Masvingo provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Kudakwashe Dhewa, stated that investigations are ongoing to determine the cause of the accident.

"The deceased, who worked in the President's Department in Gutu, sustained head injuries and died on the spot. His body was taken to Gutu Mission Hospital mortuary," said Inspector Dhewa.
