MORE than 2 200 robbers were convicted by the courts last year alone while more than 700 more are still undergoing trial as the National Prosecuting Authority continues to prioritise the timeous and efficient
prosecution of robbery cases.Zimbabwe is a peaceful nation, armed robbers should face the full wrath of the law and deterrent penalties are required,” Ms Chaitwa said.
While the NPA has made progress in prosecuting these crimes, for Mr Fidelis Madondo much more needs to be done to protect citizens.
“This is commendable. However, I encourage the National Prosecuting Authority to fasttrack the process. I feel like it is taking long to convict these robbers,” he said.
