A Zimbabwean fuel dealer who had been on the run for several years has been arrested in Portugal, according to sources familiar with the case. The fugitive, whose identity has not yet been publicly disclosed, was allegedly involved in large-scale fuel smuggling and financial crimes in Zimbabwe before fleeing the country.
Authorities have been pursuing him across international borders, working with Interpol and other security agencies. His arrest marks a significant breakthrough in Zimbabwe’s efforts to clamp down on corruption and illicit financial flows. Officials are now reportedly working on his extradition back to Zimbabwe to face justice.
