The Zimbabwe Republic Police is pressing charges against Anna Machaya’s father, Elmore Machaya (45) and mother Shy Mabika (36) for obstructing or defeating the course of justice.

The investigators found out that the national identity belonged to a namesake of the late minor who is a daughter to Ernest Machaya.
Ernest Machaya is an uncle to the late Anna Machaya.
Meanwhile, Hatirarami Momberume, the Husband of Anna Machaya was also arrested.
