Members of Parliament who represent constituencies outside Harare are raking in millions of Zimbabwean dollars every month from transport and accommodation allowances, despite staying in the capital most of the time they are attending parliamentary sessions, investigations by the <i>Zimbabwe Independent</i> have revealed.

Former Harare Mayor, Elias Mudzuri, has said residents of the Zimbabwean capital and satellite towns are consuming water contaminated with raw sewage and that water supplies could run dry next month due to fighting over the past year between government and the Movement for Democratic Change.
