In alignment with the latest directive from the Government of Zimbabwe, please be advised that “Tumbwa” has been officially classified and banned under national regulatory statutes concerning hazardous substances. Effective immediately, Tumbwa joins the registry of prohibited dangerous liquids, a list that includes long-standing entries such as nipa. This prohibition is a direct response to mounting concerns regarding public health, safety, and the unregulated distribution of locally brewed high-potency beverages. Enforcement of this ban will be coordinated in partnership with law enforcement agencies and regulatory authorities nationwide. Key Compliance Directives: 1. Production, distribution, and consumption of Tumbwa are strictly prohibited. 2. All individuals and businesses in possession of Tumbwa are required to surrender stockpiles to local authorities within 7 working days of this notice. 3. Non-compliance will attract criminal prosecution, including but not limited to fines, license revocation, and custodial sentences under the relevant Public Safety and Health Acts. Stakeholders in the beverage, hospitality, and retail industries are urged to exercise vigilance and report any violations or suspicious activities to the nearest law enforcement agency. Let this serve as a formal and binding notice of compliance. _Crimestop admin - 0785947406_ *Crimestop Zimbabwe Channel:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VadeNBoLdQehasUhzb0N
