The National Prosecuting Authority said between August and September this year, Tawanda Prosper Zindoga collected a total of USD 11,380 in rentals from 65 tenants.
However, he failed to account for USD 4,420 of this amount, which was meant to be remitted to the company he represented.
This led to Zindoga’s arrest and subsequent investigation of the missing funds.
The accused later had a mind change, and assisted law enforcement in recovering some of the stolen assets, including a Samsung A05 smartphone, and a 32-inch television, both reportedly purchased with the misappropriated funds.
A total of USD 4,420 was stolen, and only USD 220 was recovered in cash.
