HARARE – Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation journalist Musorowegomo Mukosi has approached the High Court seeking an order to evict four allegedly illegal miners he accuses of invading his mine for purposes of extracting gold.
In his urgent chamber application, filed on Monday this week, Mukosi urged the court to urgently intervene in the matter saying the miners were now fast depleting the precious mineral in his claims.
Mukosi said he is a registered holder of exclusive mining rights in mining claims situated in the Mukaradzi area of Mt Darwin known as Chin X and Chin Y which area has now been invaded by the illegal miners.

Mukosi has had a series of court battles with the previous one involving a $500 000 debt owed to CBZ Bank Limited (CBZ).
Musorowegomo Mukosi was set to lose several movable properties according a letter of execution from the High Court registrar directed to the Sheriff for Zimbabwe issued on April 11, 2018.
“According to a deed of settlement signed between the parties, Mukosi was supposed to have paid $15 000 by end of December 2016 and thereafter pay $5 000 every month,” the Daily News reported in April of 2018.
