CHRIST Embassy Church Mutare branch pastor, Thomas Tatenda Marongwe, was yesterday dragged to court to answer to fraud charges involving a smuggled vehicle.
Marongwe appeared before regional magistrate, Donald Ndirowei, who remanded him in custody to today pending his bail hearing.
Allegations are that sometime in 2022, Sean Persuade Kaseke, who is at large, smuggled into Zimbabwe a white Toyota Fortuner.
He placed it for sale at Sean Motors Car Sales, situated at the corner of Robert Mugabe and Chiremba roads in the capital.
The Toyota Fortuner was then affixed with registration number plate AFC 0441, which had been stolen, and a fake registration book was forged to purport that the motor vehicle was registered as that of the President’s Office.
