Farai Dziva|Information Minister, Monica Mutsvangwa lost lost US$ 25 000 cash to her housemaid.

Mutsvangwa’s maid Tracy Manase (59) allegedly stole the money- which had been given to the Minister “for safekeeping.”

Manase appeared before Magistrate Nortilda Muchineripi.

She pleaded guilty to the charges.

The court heard that Joyce Mukono (49) from Zimre Park in Harare, who is Mutsvangwa’s sister, gave the Minister the money for safekeeping.

In June Mutsvangwa’s sister asked for her money and was told that it was missing.

“After carrying out investigations, she found out that the former maid was hiring workers and paying them in US dollars at her rural home.”

“Mukono reported the matter to Mutare Central Police leading to the recovery of US$3 200 cash and groceries worth US$6 200 from Manase.”

Ironically this comes at a time government has banned the use of foreign currency as legal tender in Zimbabwe.
