The Zimbabwe Republic Police Tuesday said it will soon be impounding unlicensed or vehicles not displaying number plates while urging motorists to get the permanent plates.

In a statement, National Police Spokesperson, Assistant Inspector Paul Nyathi warned that motorists found wanting will be arrested.

“The Zimbabwe Republic Police confirms that checks with Central Vehicle Registry [CVR] have revealed that they have some stocks of permanent vehicle registration plates.

“In this regard, all vehicle owners who are displaying temporary plates for 2019 and backwards are implored to visit Central Vehicle Registry offices and acquire the permanent plates with immediate effect. Any vehicles seen on the road without displaying number plates will therefore be impounded by police officers on roadblocks and checkpoints,” said Nyathi.
