Appetite for unprotected forbidden fruits has landed five police recruits in hot soup. The officers are set to be summarily dismissed from the Zimbabwe Republic Police after they were found to be pregnant during their training at Morris Depot in Harare.

The officers will receive their marching orders for violating police Standing Orders.

 

Part of the police internal codes read: “Should a married or unmarried police woman fall pregnant, she can apply for a maternity leave in terms of the police ‘leave’ regulations. Police woman who falls pregnant under recruit training will be discharged from the force”.
