Zanu PF councillor facing various cases involving land

ZANU PF councillor for ward 11 in Seke, Patson Chipunza, has applied for bail after he was remanded in custody last week on allegations of fraudulently subdividing and selling land belonging to the late former Mines and Mining Development minister Amos Midzi’s estate.

Chipunza, who is being represented by Rene Kuchidza, appeared before Harare provincial magistrate Dennis Mangosi yesterday.

Investigating officer Kingston Zivanai testified for the State in opposing bail saying Chipunza has another case in Beatrice which is under investigation.
