Govt frets over graft exposé

GOVERNMENT is fretting ahead of the premiere of a documentary on corruption by international news channel Al Jazeera tomorrow that could have ramifications ahead of general elections later this year.

Al Jazeera plans to broadcast a four-part documentary titled Unveiling Zimbabwe’s Dark Secrets: Al Jazeera Exposes Looting, Plunder and Money Laundering, a two-year investigation into corruption and money laundering in Zimbabwe involving senior government officials and their cronies.

A trailer released by the news channel features President Mnangagwa’s appointed ambassador at large, Uebert Angel as one of the key figures in the scam.
