Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Harare City Football Club player, Jerry Chipangura (24), was arrested in Mabvuku last month on suspicion of drug dealing.<\/p>\n

Chipangura appeared before magistrate Stanford Mambanje at the Harare Magistrates Court on Thursday on allegations of possessing 40g of methylenedioxymethamphetamine \u2014 commonly known as mutoriro \u2014 worth $200 000.<\/p>\n

It is alleged that the footballer wanted to sell the drug in the city.<\/p>\n

He was not asked to plead to the charges and was remanded in custody to 21 July.<\/p>\n

Prosecutor Lancelot Mutsokoti opposed the granting of bail arguing that Chipangura may flee as he was facing a serious offence which attracts a custodial sentence.<\/p>\n

Mutsokoti also told the court that police were still tracking and yet to arrest the drug trafficker who smuggled the contraband into the country.<\/p>\n

He said Chipangura might jeopardise investigations if he was granted bail.<\/p>\n

Allegations are that on 30 June, at around 8 PM, police were informed that Chipangura was dealing in meth in Mabvuku, Harare.<\/p>\n

Detectives proceeded to New Mabvuku where they found the accused along John Tapedza Road.<\/p>\n

The detectives identified themselves before searching him and found 40g of meth stashed in a small Adidas black bag that he was carrying. The drug was in two sachets.<\/p>\n

Preliminary field tests carried out in the accused\u2019s presence tested positive for meth.<\/p>\n
