Chihuri blames parents for raising corrupt police officers

Speaking to parliamentarians from the Parliamentary Portfolio Committees on Peace and Security, Home Affairs and Security Services, Police General Commissioner Augustine Chihuri blamed parents for raising police officers.

Said Chihuri:

Sometimes it is quite worrying that you criticise the police, me and my officers for what the police do without realising every policeman is foreign-sourced. They are your children and without understanding or deciding to overlook the fact that they are over 20 and you have been with them yourselves for most of the time. I got them for six months, you want me to change them in six months and they behave well when you have never done your part to make sure that they become responsible citizens.

He said that the Zimbabwe Republic Police cannot train the inward person which he said is more or less the job of the parents.
