The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) has launched a manhunt for a suspected money changer who recorded a video of himself bragging and showing off brand new $5 notes.
RBZ Governor Dr John Panonetsa Mangudya said they have an offer of a financial reward for information leading to the positive identification of the man.
In a statement today, Dr Mangudya also encouraged the man to come forward and present himself to the Financial Intelligence Unit to assist with investigations.
“The RBZ (the bank) in collaboration with the Financial Intelligence Unit of Zimbabwe (FIU), is keen to interview the man to establish the circumstances under which he came into possession of the cash.
“The bank is offering a financial reward to the first person who will provide information leading to the positive identification and location of the man in the video,” he said.
The video clip has been circulating on social media since Monday May 4, 2020 showing a man sitting in a vehicle, bragging and showing off packaged brand new $5 notes.
Dr Mangudya said anyone with such information should contact the bank in strict confidence or come in person to the FIU offices in the Harare.
