In a statement yesterday, the National Prosecuting Authority of Zimbabwe (NPAZ) said the accused sexually abused boys aged between 10 and 19 years sometime between January 2022 and January 2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe accused used to train the boys karate and would take advantage of their camp days,\u201d said the NPAZ.<\/p>\n
