As a result the suspects forged a deed for just one of the
two stands living out the other, Magwere told Harare Magistrate Ethel Chichera
during a the trial of Propser Bizwek (43) and Tatenda Shaft Wakatama (44) on
Tuesday this week.
Magwere said that former Education Minister, Mutumbuka
initially bought Stand 184 Rolf Valley which is where the house is and then he
bought an adjacent stand number 183 Rolf valley and brought the two together
and got a consolidated certificate for the two.
However, the suspects just dealt with a title for stand 184
and not Stand number 183 or the certificate of consolidation said the
registrar. This means they only owned one stand and yet the property is
consolidated.
This, argued the registrar is conclusive evidence that the
property belongs to Mutumbuka.
Magwere also told the magistrate that title deed was
digitally forged by the suspects.
The duo is suspected to have worked with officials from the
Deeds Registry. On June 22, 2021, the two, together with accomplices Jonah
Ngome, Taurai Makata and Peter Chigayo who are still at large forged title
deeds of house number 90, Harare Drive, Chisipite in Harare which is registered
in Mutumbuka’s name to be in Ngome’s name.
A fortnight ago, Lynna Mlambo, a supervisor at the deeds
office who is currently on suspension turned hostile and reversed her statement
that she was the one who released the title deed to the suspects. Masvingo
