The 23 are Peter Mujuru, Gift Gibson Mwale (alias Give Tyres), George Whyte, Fero Gurudza, Tavengwa Mashitara, Steven Biti, Richard Timba, Nhau Tenje, News Dalikeni, Donald Neshamba, Benous Kachingamire, Jabulani Gwenze, Godfrey Mahlunge, Norman Kwarira, Gift Chitambo, Tinashe Java, Ray Machokoto, Ephraim Java, Jack January, Chancellor Tandi, Tonderai Ngoshi, Tafadzwa Tanyanyiwa and one identified only as Munetsi.

Chief police spokesperson Senior Assistant Commissioner Wayne Bvudzijena said the suspects were wanted for robberies that occurred in and around Harare and other parts of the country.

Some of them were released on bail a few years ago and are believed to be masterminding the recent heists.
