Arrest Warrant Issued For Former ZANU PF Youth Leader Over Fraud Trial No-Show
A warrant of arrest has been issued for former ZANU PF youth leader Lewis Matutu after he failed to appear in court for his fraud trial.
Matutu is accused of defrauding US$150,000 by allegedly stealing shares from a company called Shisib Investments. He is jointly charged with Blessing Kusangaya, Tafadzwa Kusangaya, Muzimba Muhamba, and Chisakwa Muhamba.
The state alleges that in 2018, the five, along with others still at large, forged annual returns dated April 30, 2018.
The documents were allegedly backdated to 2014, 2016, 2017, and 2018 and included forged signatures of the complainant, Joseph Sibanda, and Lyton Shumba.
The forgeries falsely indicated that Sibanda had signed as director and Shumba as company secretary, effectively altering the shareholding structure to make the accused majority shareholders.
The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) said that as a result, Sibanda was prejudiced of US$150,000, and nothing was recovered. Said the NPA:
The returns were filed with the registrar of companies, notifying the registrar of false information that changes had been made in terms of the shareholding structure and directorship of Shusib Investments, that is to say accused persons had allotted themselves shares of the company, and were now the majority shareholders.
Offence came to light on September 30, 2024, when complainant was informed by the department of Parks and Wildlife that they had been instructed by accused persons to suspend all mining operations, as they had agreed as shareholders to sell the mining claim, hence the department of Parks and Wildlife was requesting for a meeting with a Shusib Investments representative.
Also, using the illegally acquired shares accused attended an Annual General Meeting (AGM) on November 19, 2024, and removed complainant from directorship of his company, and also resolved to change the company address.
As a result of accused’s actions, complainant suffered an actual prejudice of US$150,000 and nothing was recovered.
