Mugabe’s son Bellarmine Chatunga arrested in Jo’burg

Bellarmine Chatunga Mugabe, the son of the late former Zimbabwean president Robert Mugabe, has been arrested after a shooting incident at his luxury home in Hyde Park, an upmarket suburb of Johannesburg.

The shooting reportedly happened on Thursday and left a staff member at the property critically injured. Emergency services and police responded to the scene, where the injured employee was taken for medical treatment.

South African authorities confirmed that Mugabe was taken into custody at the scene. However, the South African Police Service has not yet released full details about what led to the shooting, the motive behind it, or the charges he may face.

Police in Gauteng said investigations are still ongoing and that more information will be provided once the case has been fully assessed.

The incident has drawn significant public attention, as Mugabe has previously been linked to other legal and personal controversies. Further updates are expected as authorities continue their inquiry.
