Outrage As Dhama Is Released 24 Hours After Arrest
There is outrage on social media streets following the catch and release of Mbare drug boss Boss, Simbarashe Chanachimwe, otherwise know as Dhama, on a ZW$50 000 bail.
Dhama was arrested yesterday in connection with drug-related offences. Police announced the arrest on Twitter writing;

This follows a raid that was conducted by the police at the suspect’s drug base at Block 14 Matapi Flats, Mbare Harare on 09/02/23 at around 0400 hours.
Police recovered 26 sachets of dagga and one plant of mbanje measuring 1.7 metres.
Alas, the arrest now appears as a facade. Reacting to the development, social media users, including prominent journalists, Hopewell Chin’ono had this to say;

I wonder if CCC take over as government,is it possible to fire all police officers in Zimbabwe,judges and prosecutors,then we replace them with young and not corrupted youth

In a new Zimbabwe, one of the key issues for the new gvt must be restoring our justice system to its original function and divorcing it from the capture pf Zanu pf. All the current biased judges must never be allowed again to serve any role in the legal fraternity.
