ZIMBABWE police have tightened security at all police stations and camps countrywide following the recent explosion at the Criminal Investigations Department wing located at the Central Police Station in the capital Harare. Police Chief Spokesperson Senior Assistant Commissioner Wayne Bvudzijena issued a statement saying security measures had been beefed up at police stations and camps.

Some of the security measures in place include the banning of private motorists from parking their cars at police stations overnight for safekeeping.

Snr Asst Commissioner Bvudzijena also confirmed that investigations on the bombing earlier this month were still in progress and said a number of officers at Harare central police station have been questioned in connection with the explosion at the beginning of this month.

The Zimbabwe National Army bomb disposal unit recovered unexploded bombs from the first floor of the old wing of the Central Police Station after the bombing attack. The wing houses the CID.
