AirZim boss accuses Bvute of framing her
NewsDay Staff ·
THE ongoing Air Zimbabwe (AirZim) insurance scam saga which has landed the airline’s three top managers behind bars took a new twist yesterday with former acting managing director Grace Pfumbidzai accusing ex-board chairperson Ozias Bvute of raising trumped-up fraud charges to unseat her.
Pfumbidzai, who has been with the national airliner for 29 years, is appearing in court charged alongside former AirZim group chief executive officer Peter Chikumba and former AirZim acting CEO Innocent Mavhunga over allegations of swindling the national airline of millions of dollars through an insurance scam.
Pfumbidzai, however, through her lawyer Andrew Muvirimi, dismissed allegations levelled against her and told the court that there was more to the accusations than met the eye.
