2 Guruve cops nabbed for stocktheft

Two Guruve cops were yesterday dragged before a local magistrate after they were implicated in stealing 12 cattle valued at $4 200 from neighbouring Mozambique last
month.

Evans Chekai (30) and Carlos Musarurwa (28), all from Mahuhwe Police Station, together with their co-accused Shakeman Kachepa (30), pleaded not guilty to the charge and were remanded to October 24.

The State, led by Albert Mazhindu, alleges that on September 3, 2018 in Magobo village under Chief Chimombe, in Mozambique, Nometa Evaristo Maunza (30) was advised by his neighbour John Shamhu that his 12 bovines had been driven away by Kachepa towards Zimbabwe.
