Fortune Chirodza, 25 — from Cobra Security — pleaded guilty
to unlawful entry charges when he appeared before Harare magistrate Judith
Taruvinga and he was remanded in custody for plea recording.
This means he will spend the weekend in remand prison
pending the determination of his matter.
The court heard that between September 15 and 30, Chirodza
— together with his co-accused Tavengwa Mandibatsira — who is still at large,
connived to steal from the ministry where they were guarding.
Allegations are that they entered the computers storeroom
which was not locked at the time and stole eight processing units and
disappeared. The court heard that on October 8, detectives from CID Stores and
Business section received information that there was a break-in at the
ministry.
Investigations led to the arrest of Chirodza and recovery
of seven CPUs from the people he had sold them to. The stolen CPUs were valued
at US$5 400. Prosecutor Idah Maromo is appearing for the State. Daily News
