Zacc found 33 corruption cases across Midlands Province last year. Officials finished looking into 11 cases and sent them to prosecutors. Courts convicted two people, let one person go free, and threw out four cases because they lacked proof.
Zacc Midlands head Simbarashe Zvidzai told Gweru residents they need to help fight wrongdoing. He spoke at a meeting set up by local taxpayers in Mkoba 1. Public prosecutor Brian Muzemba agreed, saying witnesses must show up for court hearings.
Gweru Residents Association leader Cornelius Selipiwe worried about how small offenders face punishment, but powerful people escape justice. He called corruption a cancer spreading through society. His group invited experts to teach people how to spot and report corrupt acts.
The national prosecutors received 314 corruption files from Zacc in 2024. Officials said many cases need more work before going to trial. They stressed that careful investigation matters more than rushing to court.
