HARARE – In a demonstration of excellent collaboration, the National Anti-Corruption of Zimbabwe (NACAZ) and the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) have arrested a 31-year-old man for possession of dangerous drugs and traffic offenses.

On June 5, 2025, at approximately 9:45 pm, NACAZ members, in conjunction with three ZRP officers from Harare Central, stopped a Toyota Runx registration number AEM 8493 driving against one-way traffic along Innez Terrace Road in Harare CBD.

A search conducted by ZRP members in the presence of NACAZ officials yielded two twists of dagga, two satchets of dagga, and two bottles of Bronclear. The accused, Elliot Zhanero, was also found driving without a valid driver’s license.

“This arrest is a testament to the National Anti-Corruption of Zimbabwe’s commitment to combating crime and supporting the government’s efforts to curb drug abuse and traffic offenses,” said Alvine Makufa, Assistant Deputy Director Operations at NACAZ.

The accused is currently detained at ZRP Harare Central and is expected to appear in court soon.

The successful joint operation highlights the importance of collaboration between law enforcement agencies in combating crime. NACAZ and ZRP have pledged to continue working together to ensure a safer Zimbabwe.
