The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) has arrested two Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (Zimra) officers stationed at Plumtree Border Post for allegedly falsifying the exit of two luxury vehicles — a Lamborghini Urus and a Mercedes-Benz GLE 53.
Edwin Mhondiwa Chabuda and Upenyu Chaurura are facing charges of criminal abuse of duty as public officers.
Investigations revealed that the two allegedly cleared the high-value vehicles for exit at Plumtree Border Post without physically inspecting them, in violation of Zimra Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
It is alleged that Chabuda and Chaurura fraudulently certified that the vehicles had exited the country when, in fact, they had not.
The two vehicles were later seized by ZACC at a lodge in Newlands, Harare, last week.
The accused are expected to appear at Plumtree Magistrates’ Court tomorrow.
