He was found in possession of a UBL green speaker, a Rolex wristwatch, a Samsung Galaxy Note 8, a red pipe wrench, a bottle of Johnny Walker black label, a red libo wristwatch, small Samsung, USB cable, which were positively identified by those he had stolen them from. The State led by Anesu Chirenje alleges that on December 6, at around 8.45 pm Fadzanai Musarurwa arrived at home and saw three men walking near her house. She closed the gate, parked her car and entered the sitting room through the main door joining her family. After about five minutes, she heard her dogs barking viciously before she instructed her brother Masimba Musarurwa to lock the main door. As Masimba was locking the door, she then heard that there was someone who was trying to force open the door. Courage Nemaisa then quickly phoned his father Joseph Nemaisa telling him that there were intruders at the house. The household was assaulted and Masimba handed over US$850, Samsung M20, Black Acer laptop and a shotgun. But as the gang was about to leave the house, Joseph Nemaisa arrived armed with a 9mm Stribog pistol and exchanged fire. Three members of the gang, Brian Koga Tendere, Charles Chirara and Tariro Gora were shot dead while Takura and Nyandaro escaped through the window. Police attended the scene and recovered various weapons, 9mm Norinco Pistol with six rounds of ammunition. Evidence gathered there led to the arrest of the other two suspects. The suspects were also involved in other robbery cases. Read more on The Herald.
