A woman named Sandra Mazviita Pamberi has been arrested for alleging that Adela Construction Company was fetching and selling sewage water. The police arrested her is currently being held at Highlands Police Station.
She is being charged with violating Section 164C of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act [Chapter 9:23], which deals with cyber crimes.

Sandra Mazviita Pamberi’s video went viral on social media, where she alleged that Adela Construction was fetching and selling sewage water. Adela Contracting has denied the allegations. The company stated that they do not sell sewage water in Harare and that their main business is supplying and hiring construction equipment. Said the company:
We do not distribute water for purposes of profit to private individuals or corporates, and our company have never ventured in such business.
They explained that they were working on a road construction project and diverted rainwater from a stream for the roadworks. They clarified that the water they used was not sewage water and was only used for road compaction.

- The Act also establishes offences against children, such as recording genitalia and buttocks beneath clothing without consent, production, distribution, and possession of child sexual abuse material, and exposing children to pornography.

Driver we bowser akaita ka deal kake keku supplier mvura kune munhu aiida kuti awane mari yema Super achaisa inganzi inyaya iyoyo. Better mukadzi uyu asungwe. Investigative journalism yaaitrya kuita iyi hazvingoitwi jakajakara unosungwa. Akaregererei kuenda kucompany yacho kunonzwa chokwadi. Ndo type dzakafoira kuchikoro nenyaya yechi**** apa akuda kuita journalism yaasingagone. There are many things that dirty water can be used other than consumption. It appears she wanted to fix the driver by putting it on media so that the company takes action against the driver but it took a new twist. The company got her arrested. Its common to do some small deals with drivers for supply of something even at a half price like supply of small quantities of quarry stones, sands etc and some big companies even bless as motivation to the drivers that.

They is no smoke without fire. Anogona akazviona but the guys are smart enough to concile the did. They hid the evidence, put money in the hands of police and even journalists and are now fixing the person who spoke about their ill deeds. Why should the issue be sensitized like this? Kunemapersol vendette apa. Kune àNoda kuwachirwa apa.

It's difficult kubata munhu pa social media just kuti this women sent the video via ma group of which it's easy to track someone kubva mu group coz people usually are foolish to use their real names and from there they can follow Yu thru handles like Facebook where the majority of us are foolish enough to provide true info about ourselves.Econet don't just give information to anyone if that was the case I guess all those people wanted by the police could easily be tracked using their phones

What a good move, thanks to Adela Construction for taking this up the legal route. We need to take issues of cyber bullying seriously, one should not think that having a cellphone, a facebook account and some data is the diplomatic passport to act as they wish with other people's rights. I was so disturbed by her ignorance when I saw the video and I could imagine how much harm it could do to the business of Adela. Now it turns out Adela doesnt even sell water.

I did not see the video but I have read reports on it. I personally see it as another case of creative journalism. An ordinary person knows what a construction company is supposed to do, and bottling and selling of water is now for the construction industry!
With pliable journalists who are afraid of losing their livelihood if they do not follow instructions from the top, most of which is against the ethics of journalism, a lot of funnies are going on with our news! News is no longer interesting as reports are made with an agenda. What I see with this story is that someone desperately wants to put fear on social media, trying to show that one will be arrested by the police, and trying to instil in people on what cyber crime is. This fictitious case will go nowhere as it is just fiction. Maybe they should have used a better name than Mazviita Pamberi. Unfortunately, those who do not know Shona will need to get someone to translate or explain to them what the name means

If Sandra is convicted by the stu. pi. d law she must appeal. It's a law that is suppose to instill fear into people like us who see wrong in everything that is meant to stiffle free speech.
