Police in Victoria Falls have arrested three men after they were found in possession of 58 cannabis or mbanje plants that they were cultivating in their homesteads in the Kachechete area on the outskirts of the resort city.
Ntando Moyo (42), Johannes Mpunzi (65) and Crosswell Moyo (34) were nabbed following a tip-off to the police on Wednesday that they were cultivating dagga.
Prosecutor Asher Chindedza alleged that on December 30, the Criminal Investigations Department received a tipoff that the three were cultivating dagga plants in their homesteads.
After obtaining a search warrant, police found Mpunzi cultivating 50 plants of dagga while Ntando and Crosswell had four each.
Ntando was also found in possession of 110 grammes of dried dagga, leading to their arrest.
The Victoria Falls magistrate court remanded them in custody to Monday where they are expected to plead to the charges.
