adminthis year. Prosecutor Sharon Mashavire opposed bail arguing that Zvaita was not a suitable candidate for bail.
Ms Mashavire alleges that on February 28, Tichaona Zvishiri left his house secured, before Zvaita and his gang, Golden Magwenju and Joseph Makanuka, who are now both deceased, stormed the house.
They allegedly broke the kitchen door and gained entry before ransacking the whole house. It is further alleged that some of the property they stole included a 40 inch TV, home theatre, various clothes and cellphones.
They allegedly took Mr Zvishiri’s car keys and drove off in his Isuzu KB250 after loading the loot.
On June 5, it is said Zvaita went to Southerton police station where he reported that registration book of the number ABP7722 of an Isuzu KB300 which belongs to Justice Makarau were lost in the CBD.
After making the alleged misrepresentation, it is said Zvaita obtained a lost property list form ZRP Form 162 with Lost Property Book Reference number 356/13 and went to CID Vehicle Theft Squad where he obtained a clearance CVR 4 form.
Zvaita is alleged to have used the CVR 4 form to apply for a duplicate registration book and new number plates at CVR.
It is the State’s case that he was issued with new registration plates ACX891 in Justice Makarau’s name and he affixed the number plates on the car they had stolen from Mr Zvishiri who lost property valued at US$45 000 of which property valued US$25 000 was recovered.
