The police in Limpopo nabbed a guy who tried to sneak a super fancy car worth £200,000 into Zimbabwe. Guess whose car it was? A member of Parliament.
Zimbo Found Guilty of Money Laundering & Romance Fraud
So, here’s the scoop: The car got swiped yesterday from a parking lot at Menlyn Mall in Pretoria. But instead of cruising around South Africa, it was secretly headed for Zimbabwe.
Our suspect got caught later that evening in the Lebowakgomo area near Polokwane. He’s a 42-year-old Zimbabwean dude, and it turns out he didn’t have the right paperwork to be in the country. Oops!
Now he’s facing charges for having a hot (well, stolen) ride and breaking the Immigration Act. He’s got a date with the Polokwane Magistrates Court on August 12.

And guess what? The police are still digging into this whole car caper.
In similar news, two Zimbabwean criminals caused a scene in Johannesburg, South Africa after they were recently arrested for stealing underground cables.
The South African Police Service (SAPS) has yet to provide more information on the incident, which occurred at night on 7 August in the Johannesburg Central Business District.
Details of how members of the public caught the two criminals are still catchy. However, pictures circulating on the internet hint at a tip-off.
The two Zimbabweans sneaked into an underground drainage system where they knew there were copper cables. They managed to cut several pieces of the cable.
When the work was done, they carried the underground cables and got the shock of their lives when a group of residents and journalists met them on the surface.
