A self-styled prophet, believed by the State to be a mental health patient, was arrested after demanding to see former First Lady Grace Mugabe at her Blue Roof residence in Borrowdale Brooke, Harare.
The accused, Gore Mukondiwa, was denied entry by police officers stationed at the residence but remained insistent, ultimately leading to his arrest.
He was charged with criminal trespass and appeared before Harare Magistrate Sharon Rakafa, who remanded him in custody until November 7, ordering that Mukondiwa undergo an examination under the Mental Health Act.

During the proceedings, the court heard that Mukondiwa claimed he had a prophecy to deliver to the widow of former President Robert Mugabe.
However, the former First Lady, who was entertaining visitors at the time, refused to see him, dismissing him as a “nuisance.”
In court, Mukondiwa expressed surprise at the mental examination order, asserting to the magistrate that he was a “spiritual guide” and of sound mind.
