Zimbabwean police say they have already prepared a docket for Acie Lumumba, who dropped an f-word on President Robert Mugabe when he officially launched his Viva Zimbabwe party last week.
According to the privately-owned Standard newspaper, family members of the leader of the newly formed party suspect that he was allegedly abducted by state security agents on the same day he dropped the f-word on Mr. Mugabe
Lumumba blamed the 92 year-old Zimbabwean leader for all the social and economic problems, which are currently bedeviling the nation.
Senior Assistant Commissioner Charity Charamba dismissed reports that Lumumba was arrested last Thursday, noting that, in fact, they are looking for him as police have already opened a docket, to charge him for insulting the president.
Charamba said Lumumba should surrender to the police to face charges of insulting the president. But some family members and close party colleagues allege that Lumumba, a former Zanu PF activist, has been abducted by state security agents.
Charamba said Lumumba undermined the authority of the president when he dropped the f-word on Mr. Mugabe in contravention of Section 33 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act Chapter 9:23.
