Ten people were recently arrested in Harare after stealing maize from two derailed wagons at the Sanganai Inn railroad level crossing.
The wagons derailed after the train pulling them was hit by a lorry.
“Soon after the accident at 0045 hours, the group reportedly rushed to the accident scene and looted 400kg of maize valued at US$72.
“They were arrested by NRZ Loss Control and Security personnel who handed them over to Dzivarasekwa police,” NRZ said.
All the stolen maize was recovered.
In another incident, a lorry without registration number plates hit a train at a level crossing point along Kirkman Road near Sanganai Shopping Centre, Harare on January 20.
Three people were reported injured.
The NRZ continues to urge members of the public to desist from looting goods and commodities at scenes of derailment as the law will take its course on those caught.
