Picture of Freeman holding rifle and a bag of cash triggers mixed reactions

Zimbabweans have expressed mixed feelings over a picture of Zimdancehall musician Energy “Freeman” Chizanga holding an automatic rifle and a bag of cash.

Recently, Freeman was summoned by CID Homicide police for interviews regarding his affiliation with slain armed robber.

Police charged him with “Conspiracy to Commit Robbery”. He denied the charge although he admitted he was once a close friend to one of the suspects who was shot dead by police in November last year.

In a statement issued on Tuesday evening, Police said Chizanga has been released pending further inquiries. Police said:

Reference is made to ZRP’s previous post on the arrest of musician Energy Chizanga (34) aka “Freeman”. The ZRP reports that Freeman has been released pending further inquiries. More information will be released as the investigations unfold.

Police claim the musician “conspired with the late Godfrey Machingura and one Paul Ernest Mzenge Zhou to commit an armed robbery against Paul Chimbodza of house number 51 Dunkled Road Mt Pleasant, Harare where it is further alleged that he supplied information concerning the residential address of the victim Paul Chimbodza”.

In his warned and cautioned statement circulated on social media, Freeman, who is one of the most established Zimdancehall artists, denied any links with the said suspects.

He said those spreading the allegations were trying to destroy his reputation and career.

Some excitable Zimbabweans were quick to link his gun and cash as evidence of his involvement with criminals.

However, an investigation by Harare Live reveals that these were part of the props used in his video titled “Robbery” which also features popular entrepreneur, Nash Holdings boss Tinashe Mutarisi.
