Another video of minor children drinking alcohol has gone viral, this time involving girls, and police said on Wednesday they had already identified the children and their parents, and were counselling them.
Through their X handle, police said the incident was filmed at Juru Growth Point in Murewa, and involved six girls and a boy.
This comes just days after another video of young boys drinking alcohol in central Harare was filmed, and went viral on social media.
Police said its Victim Friendly Unit, in conjunction with specialised government departments, was counselling the young girls involved in the drinking orgy.
The ages of the girls was not given, but they clearly look younger than 18, at which age consumption of alcohol is permitted in the country.
“Reference is made to social media videos which went viral and showed some young girls drinking beer at a shopping centre in the country. The ZRP has established that the place is Juru Growth Point, Murewa. The ZRP has identified and located the six young girls and one boy,” police said.
