By Own Correspondent| Investigations are underway following the disappearance of two tonnes of sugar and other food items from Harare Central Prison meant for the inmates last week.

Zimbabwe Prisons and Correctional Services (ZPCS) Commissioner General Retired Major General Paradzai Zimondi revealed this in his acceptance speech of goods donated to Chikurubi Female Prison by Grace Faith Ministries in Harare today.

Retired Major General Zimondi raised grave concern over reports that prison officers are in the habit of stealing food meant for inmates.

Said Zimondi:

“It has come to my attention that some of our officers are showing behaviour not expected from the force. Any prison officer found to have stolen food and donations meant for prisoners will face the full wrath of the law.”-StateMedia
