Taurai Musindo (38) yesterday appeared before Harare
magistrate Mrs Munashe Chibindi charged with unlawful possession of dangerous
drugs and resisting a police officer. He was remanded in custody pending his
bail application.
Prosecuting, Mr Zororai Nkomo alleged that on Sunday,
police heard that Musindo was supplying cocaine in the Avenues area of Harare.
Detectives then lured him to the corner of Patrice Lumumba (formerly Third)
Street and Josiah Chinamano Avenue pretending to be potential buyers.
When he arrived, the officers identified themselves and
Musindo quickly sped off along Patrice Lumumba Street heading towards the city
centre with police officers in pursuit.
Musindo drove into George Silundika Avenue, was involved in an accident with two vehicles
near Raylton Sports Club and was immediately apprehended at the accident scene.
A body search was conducted and police recovered satchets
of cocaine from his right trousers pocket which was approximately eight grammes.
