Pastor Admire Kasi on Monday appeared in court charged with fraud that happened in 2002.

Pastor Kasi was arrested soon after returning to Zimbabawe from his United Kingdom base.

It is the State’s case that sometime in 2012, Priscilla Moyo saw an advert in a local newspaper that indicated Adsa Real Estate was selling a stand in Bluffhill, Harare.

She became interested and proceeded to Adsa Real Estate offices on February 22.
Moyo, the State alleged, paid a total of Z$1 495 537 in three instalmants for which she was given receipts.
After paying the full purchase price, Moyo who was then based in Botswana, gave his brother Kennedy power of attorney to sign the agreement of sale which was done on February 25.

It is the State’s case that on March 18, Moyo paid the balance of Z$580 000 to Adsa Real Estate’s secretary and was issued with a receipt.
She was promised the title deeds.

Moyo, the court heard, did not develop the stand but  was later surprised to see someone else developing it.
