A Harare man who allegedly pelted President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s motorcade with stones was on Monday remanded in custody to 24 July pending a mental examination.
NewsDay reported that the suspect, Benjamin Mupombwe (30) of Epworth appeared before Magistrate Dennis Mangosi on Monday and was referred to two psychiatrists for mental examination.
It is alleged that a member of the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) was deployed on July 4, 2023, at the intersection of Julius Nyerere Way and Robson Manyika Avenue to control traffic while waiting for the presidential motorcade to pass.
As the motorcade made its way through at around 11 AM, Mupombwe is accused of throwing stones at it, resulting in his arrest.
The State is the complainant in the matter.
