In an update by DCI, Joseph Mwange, was headed home in his vehicle accompanied by his wife from a party in Roysambu at around 4 am, when a four-man gang accosted them along Kamiti road, close to Jacaranda estate.
Posing as police officers, the thugs flagged down Mwange’s vehicle and asked him where he was headed to. In response, he told them that he was headed home not far away and they let him proceed.
Unknown to the detective, the thugs trailed his vehicle and as he stopped to open the gate to his home in Maziwa estate, one of them opened fire and shot him before escaping into the darkness.
