A Harare businessman was left counting his losses after his money, US$184,900, and gun were stolen.
Joseph Maruta, 40, was sleeping at his girlfriend’s house in Ruwa when the theft occurred. Police Confirm Investigation into Theft Harare provincial police spokesperson Inspector Luckmore Chakanza confirmed the theft case, saying:
“Police are investigating an unlawful entry and theft case in Ruwa. They noticed that the complainant’s rear windscreen was damaged. The complainant lost his firearm and a total of US$184,900.”
According to H-Metro, Joseph Maruta, collected US$181,000 from a farm in Kwekwe as payment for supplying potato seeds on Saturday.
After returning home to Kambuzuma, he picked up his pistol—loaded with two magazines of 15 rounds each—and headed to his girlfriend Leoba Hunda’s home in Springvale, Ruwa. Maruta entered the house with the bag containing the cash and gun. The couple locked the door and went to bed for the night.
At around 2am, Maruta was awakened by an alarm. Hunda left the bedroom to check and returned shortly after, saying the alarm had gone off at a neighbour’s house.
However, when Maruta woke up in the morning, he discovered that the bag containing the cash and gun was missing. The rear windscreen of his vehicle had also been damaged.
