admincould facilitate vehicle change of ownership for him.
Trust Gomo (39) yesterday appeared before Harare magistrate, Mr Donald Ndirowei, facing fraud charges.
Gomo was not formally charged and was remanded to November 21 on US$50 bail.
As part of his bail conditions, Gomo was ordered to continue residing at his given address and not to interfere with State witnesses.
Prosecutor Ms Rutendo Manimanzi, told the court that allegations against Gomo arose on October 3 at the Zimbabwe Republic Police’s Braeside camp in Harare.
It is alleged that Gomo who was in the company of an accomplice still at large was given US$1 160 to facilitate the registration and change of ownership of two cars.
Gomo told the unsuspecting motorist that he was a Zimra official and could facilitate the process.
After receiving the money, Gomo and the accomplice shared the money.
The motorist was later given number plates but later realised that he was duped.
He reported the case to the police leading to Gomo’s arrest.
