Wicknell Chivayo has been arrested over the $5 million payment he received for the Gwanda Solar Project.
National police spokesperson Senior Assistant Commissioner Charity Charamba confirmed Mr Chivayo’s arrest but did not give finer details on the charge.
“I can confirm the arrest of Wicknell Chivayo but I don’t have much detail as of now,” she said.
Police sources said Mr Chivayo’s docket was completed months ago but suspended Prosecutor General Mr Ray Goba had allegedly been reluctant to prosecute.
“Mr Goba was handed Chivayo’s docket by the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) and the police but he refused to prosecute saying he was still going through the docket for months,” said the source.
