Fugitive Vapositori sect leader Madzibaba Ishmael Mufani whose followers brutally assaulted officers and journalists in Budiriro last week, has earned himself the title Osama Bin Ladin after the ZRP failed to locate his whereabouts more than eight days since the attack.
It emerged Saturday that officers are now frustrated after Madzibaba Ishmael was said to have “gone off the radar” following last week’s attack when the force were disgraced after being beaten up by Ishmael’s church folk.
Meanwhile leaders of the Johanne Masowe yeChishanu Apostolic Church are said to have since joined the police to hunt for the sect leader.
Mr Edward Manyara, a senior member of Johanne Masowe, who has distanced his church from Mufani’s congregation, which stands accused of organising forced marriages, barring congregants from accessing medical treatment and education, was quoted by the state media saying Mufani should be arrested for flagrant human rights violations.
He said his cult practices were not part of the Johanne Masowe doctrine.
“We made a decision as church elders that we should help the police to hunt Madzibaba Ishmael.
“On a number of occasions, we visited his church and told him to stop his practices.
“All those things that were being done in his church were part his own doctrine.”
Mr Lawrence Katsiru, another Johannes Masowe leader, apologised to the nation last week and clarified that Mufani was not affiliated to their church.
“We would like to apologise to the President, Zimbabwe Republic Police, ACCZ, journalists and the nation at large for what happened on Friday.
“I would like to make it clear that Mufani is not part of Johanne Masowe yeChishanu since we only have five leaders, and he is not among the five.”
