HARARE – Ray Goba has been shown the door as the country’s Prosecutor-General (PG), barely two months after assuming the high-profile position.

President Robert Mugabe rescinded Goba’s confirmation as PG yesterday, in a move seen as a direct attack on Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa, who presided over his appointment in his previous capacity as Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs minister.

Mnangagwa lost the Justice ministry to former Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO) director-general Happyton Bonyongwe about three weeks ago.
