A 24 year old man Solvent Jaravani from Section 24 Triangle was found drowning at Syphon 11 along the main Canal on May 9, 2025.
Masvingo Provincial Police Spokesperson Inspector Kudakwashe Dhewa confirmed the death to TellZim News and urged members of the public to be cautious when crossing flowing water.
“I can confirm the death of Jaravani who was found dead in a canal and we urge members of the public to be extreme caution when crossing canals, river and bridges,” said Inspt Dhewa.
Circumstances are that on May 8 at around 0600 hours Jaravani left home going to Section 6 offices where he was employed using a foot path which passes through the canal bridge. His father used the same road in the morning when he was going to work.
On the same day at around 1600 hours Jaravani’s father returned back home and looked for Jaravani since he was not around but could not find him.
The following day at around 0700 hours the deceased’s father went to check at his workplace only to be told that he had not reported to work the previous day.
A search party was organised and they were told that there was a case of drowning at Syphon 11 along the main Canal. Police and ZINWA officials retrieved the body from the Canal and it was easily identified by Jaravani’s father.
In a separate incident that happened last week in Chiredzi, Tinotenda Maunganidze (32) drowned at Chishamiso Canal Hippo Valley on May 5.
Maunganidze went to Hippo Valley Farm 54 where he was employed on May 2. He was reportedly drunk and was sent home due to his condition.
On May 5 at around 0900 hours Love Mahungana (59) who was passing by saw the deceased’s body floating in the Canal. He then made a report to the police and the body was retrieved and was taken to Chiredzi General Hospital mortuary waiting for post-mortem.
