Two ZIMRA officers arrested over fraudulent clearance of luxury vehicles 

TWO Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA) officers stationed at the Plumtree Border Post have been arrested by the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) for allegedly falsifying border exit documents to cover up for two smuggled ultra-luxury vehicles recovered in Harare last week.

Edwin Mhondiwa Chabuda and Upenyu Chaurura face serious charges of criminal abuse of duty as  public officers.

According to details released by ZACC, the duo fraudulently processed and certified that a high-performance Lamborghini Urus and a Mercedes-Benz GLE 53 had exited Zimbabwe through the Plumtree Border Post.
