The Deputy Minister of Industry and Commerce, Rajeshkumar Indukant Modi said that there have to be consequences to such underhand dealings. He said: > These incidents of fraud are tantamount to stealing food from the mouths of hungry Zimbabweans. This is corruption at its highest level… To this end, we have suspended the sales representative who was getting most of the mealie-meal allocation from Silo Foods Industries in Bulawayo. We found their (employees maize meal allocation) explanation absurd and we suspended that arrangement forthwith. The minister added that if left unchecked, the theft would result in accelerated inflation and the black market. The country has an acute shortage of mealie-meal.
