Forged vehicle rebate letter shatters cop’s dreams

A POLICEWOMAN’S opportunity to benefit from the civil servant rebate scheme has been shattered after a Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (Zimra) sting operation revealed that her agent imported her car using forged documents in 2022.

The Zimra operation targeting fraudulently imported vehicles under the civil servants vehicle rebate scheme led to the seizure of the vehicle by taxmen while the car dealer, Paul Jamu (38), is in the dock.

Jamu appeared before Harare magistrate Donald Ndirowei charged with fraud involving US$3 183 and was remanded in custody to August 15 this year.
