A senior police detective got beaten up and robbed right in the heart of Harare. Four men went to court but only one faced punishment for the attack. The victim was Alexandra Jachi who runs the murder investigation unit for the city police force.

Jachi noticed cars following him as he drove home to Chitungwiza from Highfield that evening. He pulled over at Jongwe Corner hoping to stay safe from the stalkers. Two men jumped out and ran straight toward his vehicle.

The detective got out and fired his gun into the air as a warning. One attacker kept coming forward despite the gunshot. Jachi shot the man in the leg but he still charged ahead and knocked the officer down with something hard.

The gang beat Jachi until he passed out completely. People tried to help but the robbers attacked them as well. The criminals searched through the unconscious detective's pockets and stole his wallet with cash inside.

The court heard how the thieves took his service weapon and identity papers during the September attack. Sydney Rande got convicted and must pay a fine to avoid twelve months behind bars. Police never found the stolen gun.
