NEW: High Court Sheriff Madega arrested   

Online Reporter  

THE Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) on Wednesday arrested Sheriff of the High Court, Mr McDuff Madega, for proceeding to sell a property attached by the court despite an objection against the sale.

In a statement on Wednesday, ZACC said Mr Madega, who is facing a number of similar allegations, failed to disclose to the buyer about the objection.

“It is alleged Madega was instructed to auction a stand by a judgement creditor in fulfilment of a judgement debt,” reads the statement.

“Madega attached and auctioned the property to the highest bidder. It is, however, alleged that before confirming the sale of the property, Madega received an objection, which he presided over, resulting in him not confirming the sale.

“However, after allowing the objection to stand, Madega is alleged to have put the same property for sale by private treaty and did not disclose to the buyer about the previous objection.”

Madega will appear in court today.
