Grace Mugabe Loses Trucks to Government

Grace Mugabe the late former president's wife has lost 3 Iveco trucks to Government which were brought into the country ten years ago without paying duty after the supplier lied to Zimra that they were only temporarily in the country.

South African drivers namely Cassimjee Bilal, Henry Hadebe, Samuel Baloyi and Sydney Sekgobelo were arrested after they brought in the trucks and Grace Mugabe reported to police that they had brought the wrong model of trucks.

The four drivers were granted bail with pending trial and they went back to South Africa.

NPA applied for confiscation of the trucks in June this year but Harare magistrate Ms Barbara Mateko dismissed the State application.

But on review at the High Court, Justice Pisirayi Kwenda reversed the magistrate’s decision and ordered the confiscation of three of the Iveco 440 trucks to the State.
