PROSECUTOR GENERAL
Welcome to the National Prosecuting Authority of Zimbabwe (NPAZ). The NPAZ is a government agency that is responsible for combating crime and corruption. Our mandate is to institute and undertake criminal Prosecutions on behalf of the State. We strive to promote a just and fair system for all persons who approach the courts, preserving the rights of arrested and detained persons as provided for by the Constitution. Prosecutors deal with serious cases of crime and corruption thus contributing immensely to the realisation of the rule of law, justice, peace, development, human rights and most importantly Government’s objective of an upper middle-income economy by the year 2030.
The National Prosecuting Authority is one of two institutions that are mandated to fight corruption in Zimbabwe. In terms of chapter 13 of the Constitution of Zimbabwe, The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission and The National Prosecuting Authority are the institutions mandated to fight corruption.
