THE Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC) has approached
the High Court in a bid to recover the company’s motor vehicle from former
Chief Executive Officer, Patrick Mavhura.
The national broadcaster approached the High Court after
Mavhura allegedly refused to surrender it.
In her founding affidavit, the company secretary, Patricia
Muchengwa, acting on behalf of the national broadcaster said Mavhura was only
entitled to use the Chevrolet Trailblazer when he was employed by ZBC but
failed to return the vehicle after the termination of his contract.
She further argued that the motor vehicle is required for
day to day operations at the corporation in fulfillment of its constitutional
mandate.
The national broadcaster is seeking the court to issue an
order authorising the deputy sheriff to seize the vehicle and compel Mavhura to
settle the costs of the lawsuit.
Meanwhile, Mavhura has a similar charge pending at the
Harare Magistrates Court where he allegedly connived with other two other
former ZBC bosses Benania Shumba and Stephen Kundishora to give Shumba a Mazda
BT50 without following due procedure.
The trio worked in unison leading to Shumba purchasing her
personal issued car at net book value of zero without having a board of survey
set up to achieve a maximum financial return for the disposal of the ZBC
vehicle. The motor vehicle is valued 11 000 US Dollars. ZBC
