Full story: Detective Tafadzwa Chidawa, also known as Detective Kedha, broke down in court while testifying in his defense, leading the magistrate to adjourn proceedings. He is in remand prison after defaulting court for over a year, causing his bail to be revoked. Chidawa and his accomplices—Paradza Passmore Matubu, Perseverance Chisango, Malvern Mutanda, and Francis Takura—are charged in a fraud case, with Mutanda and Takura still at large.
The case involves Melody Matanhire, who was in an affair with Mutanda. Mutanda deceived her into believing he had US$100,000 in soiled money that required US$20,000 clean bills for a “cleaning” process. Trusting him, Matanhire took the money from her home and accompanied him to Blue Ridge Lodge for the supposed process. However, Mutanda had conspired with Chidawa and the others to steal the money.
At the lodge, after Matanhire handed over the money, the gang staged a fake police raid, pretending to arrest Mutanda while seizing the funds. They later shared the stolen money among themselves. The crime was exposed when Matanhire staged a fake robbery to hide the loss from her husband. CID Homicide detectives later arrested Mutanda, recovering items he had bought with the stolen money.
