Socialite and businessman Genius Kadungure, who is accused of fraud, was yesterday remanded in custody to today for his bail ruling.
Kadungure, who was represented by Jonathan Samukange, appeared before magistrate Chrispen Mberewere.
In his application for bail, Kadungure said the High Court ordered him to pay US$58 665 to Zimra as additional vehicle import duty which he did, leaving the State with no tangible allegations against him.
Samukange said the order compelled the complainant not to confiscate Kadungure’s vehicle, but the police violated the ruling.
The investigation officer Erasmus Mazhawidzi said Kadungure had a propensity to commit similar offenses while on bail, but Samukange argued that he never committed any offense because he was currently facing mere allegations.
Samkange said Kadungure is on remand over a US$5 million case and could not flee a case involving US$58 665.
