THE military has retained its presence at strategic State
security institutions such as the Police Support Unit headquarters at Chikurubi
in Harare, although soldiers were withdrawn from the streets and highways at
the end of Operation Restore Legacy on Monday.
Armoured vehicles were still stationed outside the Police
Support Unit headquarters yesterday with several soldiers guarding the
premises.
Zimbabwe Defence Forces spokesperson Colonel Overson
Mugwisi declined to comment over the issue, saying he was on leave. He referred
all questions to army spokesperson, Lieutenant Colonel Alphios Makotore, whose
mobile phone went unanswered.
The tankers were driven to strategic State institutions at
the launch of Operation Restore Legacy mid-November as the military intervened
in the Zanu PF succession ructions that eventually forced then President Robert
Mugabe to step down paving way for his former deputy Emmerson Mnangagwa to take
over the reins of power in both government and the ruling Zanu PF party.
