An overzealous Zimbabwe Republic police officer based at Mphoengs in Plumtree is in hot soup after he allegedly se_xually molested 21 female students from Bulu Primary School while investigating a case of se_xual abuse at the school.
According to CITE reports Constable Muzulu was assigned to investigate alleged se_xual abuse at the school following a tip-off to the police.
Muzulu demanded to question all the victims one at a time in private. He even refused to allow a female teacher identified as Sihle Ncube who is also part of Child Protection services to sit in on the interviews.
When he was given an office to conduct the interviews, Muzulu is alleged to have fondled the breasts of all 21 girls and to have inserted his fingers into their privates before cautioning them to desist engaging in se_xual activities.
Parents who spoke to CITE said,
The police officer took the children to one room where he made the girls undress, inserted his fingers in their private parts and touched their breasts. Some girls bled from the experience and others failed to sit properly.
Our children went to their homes to narrate this ordeal and we don’t know if this police officer raped the girls or not.
A police report has since been opened against Muzulu at his post at ZRP Mphoengs under RRB3145519. The Officer-In-Charge at ZRP Mphoengs is reported to have led a team of officers to investigate the allegations against Muzulu.
