It seems that the late businessman Joseph Mutangadura has spoken from the grave, as all the suspects reportedly involved in his murder have now been arrested.
Since his death on August 17 of this year, all seven suspects have been brought to book.
The seventh suspect appeared in court yesterday.
Tarisai Terence Tetena faced Harare regional magistrate Marewanazvo Gofa and was remanded in custody.
He has been advised to apply for bail at the High Court.
The suspects include Given Mandizadza (34), Phillip Mutasa (38), Anesu Machadu (32), and Webster Nhau (57).
Another fugitive, Vengesai Jabulani Mutasa (41), was captured in a dramatic turn of events after he shot a police officer in Sanyati, Mashonaland West province.
Tariro Mutsamanye (34) and Dexter Tinashe Mugaro (31) have been in custody as they await the finalisation of several cases involving various charges related to armed robberies.
They were remanded in custody until next month and advised to apply for bail at the High Court, as they are facing serious charges.
Additionally, four other suspected armed robbers have already been arrested in connection with the case.
Among them are two brothers, Philip and Vengesai Jabulani Mutasa, and police have indicated that the gang members are likely related.
The gang raided Mutangadura’s hideout on August 17.
Around 11:15 PM, security guard Bonus Kadiwa, who was on duty, heard barking dogs and went to investigate.
He spotted two men crawling near the gardener’s cottage toward the main house.
Suddenly, he was grabbed from behind and threatened with a pistol.
The suspects, armed with claw bars, hammers, and pistols, forced Kadiwa to walk around the house before breaking down the north-facing main door to gain entry.
Kadiwa then realized there were seven attackers, all wearing balaclavas.
They confiscated his cell phone and left one suspect to guard him while the other six ransacked the house.
The suspects broke into the master bedroom, where they encountered Mutangadura.
A single gunshot was fired, hitting the businessman in the chest and killing him instantly.
This week, police announced that they had recovered the pistol from Vengesai Mutasa, which was used to kill Mutangadura.
The same firearm was also involved in the shooting of a police officer in Sanyati over the weekend.
