Two suspects due in court for the possession of unlicensed firearms in Harare

To ensure the safety of the community members of Public Order Policing conducted a stop and search operation in Makhaza, Harare last night, which resulted in a 30-year-old suspect being arrested for being in possession of an unlicensed firearm.

During the early hours of this morning, members of the Provincial Integrated Team conducted a similar stop and search operation, also in Harare when another 30-year-old suspect was arrested at a local tavern in possession of an unlicensed 9mm pistol and ammunition.

Both suspects are expected to make their court appearances in Khayelitsha once they have been charged.
