Seven suspected robbers killed prominent businessman Joseph Mutangadura at his Lisheen Estate farmhouse in Ruwa during a late-night attack. The victim, known as Mtangaz, operated multiple enterprises spanning from the popular Mutangadura Hideout to several butcheries and various commercial ventures. Armed attackers confronted the businessman and demanded money from him during the assault.
Mutangadura told the assailants he carried no cash and explained that revenues were stored at the abattoir facility. The gunmen responded by shooting him multiple times, striking his stomach with one bullet and firing more than five additional rounds into his chest before fleeing the property. Commissioner Paul Nyathi verified the incident occurred and stated he awaits complete case details before releasing a full statement.
Harare CID Homicide detectives have traveled to the farm location to begin their investigation into the circumstances surrounding the businessman's death.
