Villagers in Kanengoni village under Chief Negomo in Chiweshe are distressed after illegal gold panners invaded a cemetery in the area in search of gold.

Kraal head, Garikayi Kanengoni, confirmed the development to H-Metro saying the illegal miners were expected to appear before Chief Negomo. He said:

> I received information that there were some illegal miners operating at the village cemetery and I could not believe it.

> As kraal head, I engaged Chief Negomo’s secretary and we visited the anthill where we lay to rest our relatives, and where our forefathers were laid to rest.

> It is unbelievable that the miners failed to respect the dead and went on to expose some of the graves, in search of gold.

> The matter has disturbed villagers and we agreed that this must stop.

> Vamwe vana vacho ndevemumusha handizive kuti kana vavekufukunura makuva tochivigira kupi vafi uye isu tikafa tinovigwa kupi. (Some of the culprits are locals and I’m concerned that we won’t have a burial place anymore as they are digging up the cemetery.)

> Families have been clashing over this matter and it has been stopped and appropriate action has been taken.

> The people involved are expected to appear before Chief Negomo this Saturday and I promise that this will surely be brought to a halt.

Authorities have turned a blind eye to the desecration of the cemetery as they are reportedly being given gold to allow the mining to continue.
