Drugs found in Jonathan Moyo daughter's room

THERE was a small amount of marijuana in Zanele Moyo's room and not the huge cache of empty alcohol bottles initially indicated, higher education minister Jonathan Moyo said on Wednesday.

Zanele, Minister Moyo's daughter, was found dead in her off-campus flat in South Africa last Saturday. The 20-year-old was a second year student at the University of Cape Town.

Addressing mourners who included President Robert Mugabe, Minister Moyo said they found a small amount of marijuana when they got into Zanele's apartment.

According to The Herald newspaper, Minister Moyo said the family had not raised any suspicion of foul play over his daughter's passing.

He however, expressed the family's frustration with South African authorities who told the family that results of toxicology tests would only be available after five years.
