Tafadzwa Chidawa, who is known as ‘Detective Kedha’ was
investigating the woman at the request of her boyfriend.
He was dragged to court yesterday.
The court heard that on March 5, Chidawa and his five
accomplices contacted Sallom Gandiya purporting to be her boyfriend’s cousin.
Chidawa invited Gandiya to meet him at Caledon Shops, along
Seke Road, and she hired a cab that was being driven by Watson Gatsi.
The two drove to Caledon Shops where they were approached
by Chidawa and his accomplices who introduced themselves as police detectives
from Harare Central Police Station.
They told Gandiya and the driver that they were under
arrest because she was lying to her boyfriend that she was pregnant.
They hadcuffed Gandiya and used violence to force her into
a car which was driven to Mutare Road.
Gandiya then called her friend informing him that she had
been kidnapped.
After hearing the conversation, the gang drove back to
Harare and dumped Gandiya and Gatsi at Harare Central Police Station.
The two duly filed a police report.
The State, represented by Rufaro Chonzi, opposed bail and
led evidence from the investigating officer revealed that Chidawa fled from
police custody after his arrest.
The matter is back in court today where magistrate Dennis
Mangosi is expected to hand down the bail ruling. H Metro
