Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) have confirmed the discovery of two bodies, previously reported missing, found floating in water bodies in separate tragic incidents in Goromonzi, Mashonaland East, and Inyati, Matebeleland North.

Commissioner Paul Nyathi, ZRP national spokesperson, revealed that Nelson Kaingidza (34) was found dead in Hunyani Dam at Maikoro Farm, Goromonzi, on May 23, 2025. Kaingidza had been missing since May 19 after leaving home for a prayer and fasting session at the farm. The body bore marks on the legs, raising suspicion of foul play. Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding what is suspected to be a murder.

In a related incident, Shepherd Mashava (33) was discovered dead in the Mwarazi River, Inyati, also on May 23. Mashava had disappeared on May 17 after reportedly being assaulted by James George following a dispute over braai meat at a sports bar in Chinyudze Business Centre, Inyati. His death is also being treated as a murder case.

The Zimbabwe Republic Police are urging anyone with information that could aid in the arrest of the suspect in the Mashava case to come forward and report to the nearest police station.

Authorities continue investigations into both cases as the community mourns these tragic losses.
