Viral Video Sparks Police Operation To Rescue Child Beggars In Harare

The police and the Department of Social Welfare conducted a joint operation last week in the Harare Central Business District to address the issue of child begging. This initiative aimed to remove children who were soliciting money from passers-by.

According to a police statement, the operation was prompted by a viral video showing parents exploiting their children for begging.

The video featured a narrator capturing scenes of several women directing their children on whom to approach for money.

Disturbingly, it depicted mothers punishing their children with slaps if they returned empty-handed from their targets.

The footage was reportedly filmed in the area between Harare Town House and Joina City, though the exact date remains unknown.

On August 23, the police executed the operation, successfully removing 22 children along with their guardians, who were subsequently handed over to the Department of Social Welfare for further assistance. Reads the statement:

Reference is made to a video which went viral on social media platforms in which children are seen begging for money near Joina City, Harare CBD.

On 23/08/24, Police in Harare, in conjunction with the Department of Social Welfare, carried out an operation in the streets of Harare CBD removing children and their guardians who were begging for food in Harare CBD, particularly along Rezende Street, Joina City and Town House areas. As a result, 22 children and their guardians were handed over to the Department of Social Welfare.

Guardians are implored not to use children and the disabled to beg for money and food in the streets as they risk arrest for violating the country’s laws protecting children.

@zero rated, food is plenty, but it's not for free. Some families don't have the money. Food is plenty in the supermarkets. Hakuna zhara, but vanhu vaneusimbe hwekusevenza. I will not rule out kuti kune dzimwe mhuri dzinodavo rubatsiro, takabva nako. Nhamho inongouya semhepo, hayitengwi nemari. Saka ngatibatsireivo vakakodzera rubatsiro

I think village life is better, it's wiser for people to return to their places of origin. Town life is harder, everything needs money. In the village many villagers don't use money in their daily lives. There is plenty of cheap land out there, some of it is for free. In one of his speeches, Father Zimbabwe told be people to use land for better lives. Instead of teaching children to vend for money, we should teach them about how to use the land for production,growing fruit trees, crops, livestock and fish farming. Vending will expose children to abuse.

Why all this vitriol and bile early in the morning...You are literally going to bat for these lazy slackers who cannot even fend for themselves.... Granted there are a few genuine cases of hunger in Zimbabwe, most of them are found in rural areas that were disenfranchised since colonial times...These townies who use their children to beg are literally the embodiment of evil and one can even make the leap that they are saboteurs hellbent on ruining the image of the country...The majority of the country is food secure...This report is clearly a ploy to get gullible people whipped up into a frenzy... Erudite out
