He said that ACR Financial Officer Ian Harris was abducted at 4pm by members of Mines Minister Obert Mpofu’s private police, the CID Mineral Squad. Cranswick said the police are refusing to tell lawyers where Harris has been taken.
We were not able to get a comment from police at the time of broadcast but it is alleged that the ACR official is being accused of fraud and corruption. Cranswick says: “It is pure abduction and charges of corruption and fraud are mere harassment.”
