The trio was convicted on fraud charges. Prosecutor Vimbai Makamure told the court that on 15 November 2022, Pambuka, who was masquerading as Croco Motors’ marketing manager and representing Mr Chingwena, called Mr Mazhangara using a South African number. He claimed that Chingwena was engaged in a meeting and they wanted R36 000 as an advance payment for shipping spare parts from South Africa. The court heard that Pambuka then asked Mazhangara to deposit the money into J Velem Enterprises trading as Ulphostery Trading’s FNB Bank account in South Africa. He also told Mazhangira that he would receive the equivalent of R36 000 in United States dollars in the country. Mazhangira became suspicious and went to confirm with Croco Motors who indicated that they had no containers of spare parts in South Africa waiting for shipment. He then reported the matter to the police leading to the arrest of Pambuka, Mbauya and Mwenye. Mbare magistrate Nyasha Vitorini remanded them in custody to tomorrow for sentencing. | The Herald _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
