It is also reported that the security team later fired warning shots to disperse the gang and the quartet was arrested later after police investigations. Mutare magistrate, Tendai Mahwe this Monday remanded the quartet in custody to Wednesday for the continuation of trial. Machete-wielding gangs have recently become a national plague as they terrorised miners and members of the public, particularly in gold mining towns. Impunity which the gangs enjoyed prompted some to argue that the gangs were protected by political elites in the country. The police however recently launched a blitz in a bid to contain the gangs which were slowly getting out of hand. Since the launch of the operation ‘Chikorokoza Ngachipere/ Ukukorokoza Akuphele’, a large number of suspected members of machete gangs has been arrested.
