Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi, the national police spokesperson, said in a statement that the police were not conducting any investigations on Mnangagwa.

Nyathi said they would deal with any criminal or political activists who wanted to tarnish the image of President Mnangagwa and the police.

He said the fake press statement, which was dated 14th September 2023, was a fabrication and a distortion of the truth. He said the police had started investigations to identify and arrest the perpetrators of the hoax.

“The fake statement is dated 14th September 2023. The Police dismisses this fake or false statement with the contempt it deserves.”
