National police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul
Nyathi told The Herald last night that police were in possession of two
warrants which had not been cancelled. “We have two warrants of arrest that
have not been cancelled yet. The first warrant was issued by magistrate Mujaya
on 18 January 2019 where he was facing criminal law charges under Section 174
(b) (a) of the criminal law code because he defaulted court under number CRB
HarareR842/18.
“The second warrant is under 39/18, he was given his
passport but failed to submit it back within the stipulated period so the
police should execute these warrants they are currently in possession of and so
far there are no indications that they have been cancelled,” he said.
Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Permanent
Secretary Virginia Mabhiza said Kasukuwere should submit himself before the
laws of Zimbabwe. “When someone is issued with a warrant of arrest, they should
submit before the law. What he should do is submit himself before the law and
seek cancellation of the warrants. He has his lawyers, so they should advise
him on what he should do. His submission to the law is standard procedure.”
