South African Police Service (SAPS) in the Western Cape are investigating the murder of a Zimbabwean journalist, Mike Chimombe.

Chimombe lived in Cape Town, and though he was trained as a journalist at the Harare Polytechnic, he was working as a taxi driver at the time of his demise.

In an interview with African News Agency, Western Cape provincial police spokesperson, Lieutenant Colonel Andrè Traut said:

> On Sunday at 20:10 a man, who is believed to be a taxi driver, was shot and killed in Tsaris Street, in Delft [Cape Town] by an unknown suspect who is yet to be arrested. His body was discovered next to his Toyota Corolla.

> The circumstances surrounding the incident are being investigated. The motive is unknown, however, robbery is not ruled out.

Zimbabweans based in South Africa are dismayed over the murder of Chimombe, who was son to veteran journalist Emilia Zindi.

Secretary general of the Zimbabwe Migrant Support Network Shelton Chiyangwa said:

> Here we have lost a renowned journo and a family man, one who has been adding value to the republic by providing a service to the people.

> We call upon the SA Police Service to expedite their investigation and bring the murderers to book as this will deter many from doing such crimes.
