Read the police statement issued on Tuesday: > Police officers arrested Kadye, the chairperson of Tembwe Housing Cooperative, on December 8, 2020. > Kadye, together with two other members of the housing cooperative, Frank Sithole and Talent Machaba, were charged with malicious damage to property. Zim Morning Post reports that nearly 200 home-seekers paid US$2500 each to Kadye for the unserviced stands where they erected their houses. Kadye was arrested for resisting the execution of the High Court judgment which ordered the Harare City Council and Sheriff to demolish 190 houses that were built illegally in the area. The publication further reports that Kadye, Sithole and Machaba were arrested after they hurled missiles at a police truck and damaged its windscreen. The three were, however, released after the police officer failed to appear in court within 48 hours as stated under the Constitution. Meanwhile, Harare Mayor, Councillor Jacob Mafume told Zim Morning Post that the co-operatives are registered and recognised by the central government and not the council. He said: > They (Government and cooperatives) bypassed council and created co-operatives regulated by the Co-operative Act under minister Sithembiso Nyoni. > The co-operatives are not regulated by council but registered by (the central) government. It is government which has a register of these co-operatives. They report to government and we do not have power over them. > They (Co-operatives) have become a law unto themselves and government has failed to control them as well as to protect the people who are fleeced by them. itel A50 now available on Pindula at $84 64GB storage, 2GB RAM. _ideal for light usage_ _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
