Opposition leader Jacob Ngarivhume was picked up by riot police details in Mbare while conducting a clean up exercise on Tuesday .
Prior to his arrest, the 31
st July Movement convener had vowed to go on with the clean up campaign despite his notification of the exercise having been shot down on the basis that it would turn political and that police details had earlier in the morning started manning the place in anticipation of him pitching up.

MDC Alliance Vice President Tendai Biti has called on President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s administration to shelve plans of sailing through the Patriotic Bill and save itself from unnecessary criticism.
A fortnight ago, Zanu PF’s Mberengwa South MP Alum Mpofu moved a motion in the House of Assembly where he proposed a Patriotic Bill must be passed to safeguard the government from needless criticism by top opposition officials and ordinary citizens.
The motion was seconded by Zanu PF chief whip and Gutu MP Pupurai Togarepi.
Togarepi said the proposed Act would punish opposition officials including Biti and his boss Nelson Chamisa who were insisting the West should maintain sanctions it imposed against Zimbabwe.
