A 43-year-old suspected fraudster has been arrested at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport after allegedly orchestrating a fraudulent transfer of ownership for a property valued at US$580 000 in Gletwin, Harare.
Investigations revealed that the suspect, Elijah Meskano, had transferred ownership of the property into his and his wife’s names.
It is believed that the suspect intended to flee the country before his arrest.
National police spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed the arrest.
