ZRP has confirmed the arrest of Constable Prince Ndavambi, who had been on the run following the death of 30-year-old Blessed Believe Juruvenge. Ndavambi was named the main suspect in a murder investigation launched after Juruvenge died on May 28 — a day after he was allegedly severely assaulted while in police custody at ZRP Ruwa.
Juruvenge, a tuck-shop owner and pirate taxi driver from Damafalls, was arrested on May 27 by Constable Ndavambi and a complainant identified as Mwazha. The arrest followed a report that Juruvenge had assaulted Mwazha during a dispute over a counterfeit US$50 note used at his shop.
According to police records, after the arrest, Ndavambi allegedly beat Juruvenge and his sister Melisa Manyepa with a wooden stick while demanding the repayment of US$100. He reportedly threatened to kill them if the money wasn’t returned. Juruvenge lost consciousness during the assault and was dragged back into the holding cells. Later that night, a duty officer found him struggling to breathe. He was taken to Ruwa Rehabilitation Centre, where he died the following morning.
After the death, Ndavambi fled, prompting a nationwide manhunt. Police have now confirmed his arrest. Commissioner-General Stephen Mutamba stated that justice will be pursued without fear or favour.
Meanwhile, two post-mortem examinations have been carried out after the family raised concerns about inconsistencies in the initial report. The investigation is still ongoing.
