Harare City Council has suspended three senior water engineers as it moves to align its service delivery mandate with the residents.
The suspension is without benefits.
The suspended engineers are Simon Muserere (wastewater , Richard Kunyadini (distribution) and Artwell Ruhukwa (water production).
Chief Chemist Mr Teddy Mafuko is part of the suspended group.
The four face allegations of misconduct in the perfomance of their duties.
According to letters written to the four their charges border on incompetency, inefficiency, habitual and substantial neglect of duties arising from inaction on issues relating to their duties.
They are expected to appear before a hearing within the next 14 days and in the meantime they have been asked to surrender all council equipment in their possession.
