Uebert Angel Missing After Rape Case Opened
By A Correspondent | ZimEye | A police case has reportedly been opened in Zimbabwe in connection with allegations against Spirit Embassy leader and presidential envoy Prophet Uebert Angel.
Sources indicate that the matter was recorded at Borrowdale Police Station under reference number RRB 6756222, following a complaint linked to a London-based complainant. Authorities have not yet released a detailed public statement outlining the specific scope of the investigation, but confirmation of a report being filed has intensified public scrutiny around the prominent religious and diplomatic figure.
Angel, who was appointed Ambassador-at-Large and Presidential Envoy in 2021, has previously faced public controversy in connection with separate allegations aired in international media investigations. In a recent exclusive interview with ZimEye, Angel responded directly to questions regarding the new complaint.
“You see moral failure is not a crime. I am dealing with the law here — and moral failure is not a crime,” Angel told ZimEye. (video)
ZimEye is currently the only news network to have secured a direct interview with Ambassador Angel since the latest complaint surfaced. During the exchange, Angel maintained that any issues raised against him fall within the realm of morality rather than criminal conduct.
The identity of the complainant has not been publicly disclosed. It is also not yet clear whether formal charges have been laid or whether the matter remains at the investigative stage.
Legal experts note that the opening of a police report does not in itself constitute proof of wrongdoing, but it signals that authorities have deemed the complaint sufficient to warrant preliminary inquiry.
As developments unfold, further clarification is expected from law enforcement officials and Angel’s representatives.
