Zimbabwe: U.S $700k Fraud - 6 Get Bail

21 April 2015

Six men who allegedly connived with some Ministry of Finance and Economic Development officials to swindle the Government of $729 345 were last Friday freed on bail. High Court judge Justice Chinembiri Bhunu granted bail to the six in varying sums depending on the circumstances of each suspect. The six are: Tinashe Jacopo, Rangarirai Katsande, Christopher Kumisai, Felix Rimaunga, Anthony Tafirenyika and Madzudzo Mudzimba.

They had been denied bail by a magistrate, but the High Court overturned the decision after convincing arguments from a legal team comprising Advocate Lewis Uriri, Adv Webster Chinamora, Mr Walter Bherebhende and Mr Allen Moyo on appeal.
