THE Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has escalated its search for under-fire war veteran Blessed Geza (pictured), enlisting the help of the International Criminal Police Organisation (Interpol) and regional security agencies.
Geza faces allegations of undermining President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s authority and inciting public violence.
The former Zanu PF central committee member was expelled from the ruling party in April following accusations of indiscipline.
His ouster came after he publicly criticised Mnangagwa, accusing him of corruption and mismanagement, which he claimed had led to Zimbabwe’s economic decline.
Police spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed to the Independent that Zimbabwe had formally notified Interpol and regional law enforcement bodies to widen the dragnet for Geza, who remains at large.
“The police are still looking for Blessed Geza in relation to ongoing criminal investigations. It is correct that the Zimbabwe Republic Police has engaged Interpol and relevant regional police services as investigations into the case continue,” he told the Independent.
Geza has continued to broadcast video footage on YouTube calling for Mnangagwa to step down.
This week, he broadcast a statement from an undisclosed location praising Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga for reportedly expelling businessman Kuda Tagwirei from last week’s Zanu PF central committee meeting.
