Chihuri in Grace diamond ring saga

POLICE Commissioner General Augustine Chihuri and his three subordinates cited as respondents in the $1,35 million diamond ring saga involving Lebanese businessman, Ahmed Jamal and First Lady Grace Mugabe, have filed an urgent chamber application for an order to respond to the civil dispute.

This was disclosed yesterday by Attorney-General (AG)’s representative, Mike Chimombe, who was representing Chihuri, Officer Commanding CID Law and Order, Assistant Commissioner Thulani Ncube and Superintendent Nyambo Viera, who is also attached to the Law and Order section.

Chimombe made the submissions before Justice Lavender Makoni after Jamal’s lawyer Mzokuthula Mbuyisa, applied for an order to join the four top cops in the saga in which law enforcement agents allegedly invaded Jamal’s upmarket houses on Grace’s orders.
