Wild sendoffs just got a police nerf. ZRP is telling mourners to stop taking coffins and corpses through Zimbabwean downtowns, taxi ranks, markets, and shared spaces. Commissioner Paul Nyathi says offenders face legal consequences because rooftop caskets, dancing crowds, gridlocked roads, health concerns, and frightened bystanders turn tributes into a public-safety mess.

One Harare run already earned four touts disorderly-conduct charges and fines. Their tribute for 29-year-old Paswell Tichare put his casket atop a kombi between Zengeza 4 and Machipisa, ahead of burial at Granville Cemetery, KuMbudzi. Main Street got blocked, singing broke out, and reckless driving entered the chat before officers transferred the body into a hearse.

Godwin Mazenge, Michael Zhuwawo, 30, Anna Chere, 27, and Tawanda Mafaranyika, 27, took those penalties. A separate Mabvuku case landed 29-year-old tout Wishes Mukungurutse in court over accusations that he grabbed Romeo Matavire’s coffin from a Nyaradzo Funeral Services vehicle, placed it on a Wish vehicle, and skidded during the display.
