The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (Zacc) has turned its guns on opposition MDC-T top brass including Morgan Tsvangirai's son, Edwin.

Edwin Tsvangirai is under prove over his alleged participation in a suspicious tender for the supply of water chemicals to Harare City Council.

According to reports, Zacc is alleging that Edwin allegedly used former HCC deputy mayor Emmanuel Chiroto to facilitate the deal, in which he is said to have acted as an agent, that resulted in the tender being irregularly awarded to a South African company with links to him.

Harare businessman McDonald Chapfika previously had the contract with HCC when the new deal kicked in.

"We are looking for him (Edwin) as Zacc. We want to interview him so that he can explain his role in this case," said the source, according Daily News.

Tsvangirai's spokesperson, Luke Tamborinyoka, confirmed Zacc was targeting senior party officials in its latest blitz.

"It has come to our attention that upon realising the political damage of the corruption stories confirming that Zanu-PF is the haven for the corrupt and kleptocratic, the party is planning to stage-manage cheap drama by picking up a few opposition and civic activists to spread the political damage".
