A security guard, who allegedly stole groceries from OK Zimbabwe Fife Avenue branch, has been taken to court after he allegedly stole groceries worth over ZW$2.5 million.
Safarawu Nyandoro, of Epworth, appeared before the Harare Magistrates’ Courts charged with theft.
The complainant in this matter is OK Zimbabwe Limited, Fife Avenue branch.
According to prosecutors, sometime in 2021, Safarawo was employed by Securico which is a registered security company in Zimbabwe.
Nyandoro was deployed at the Ok Zimbabwe Fife Avenue branch responsible for the upstairs car park which is where the OK shop warehouse is located.
It is alleged that from December 9, 2021, to January 12, 2022, Nyandoro stole various groceries worth ZW$2 527 045 from the warehouse he was deployed to man.
The court heard that Nyandoro would cover the CCTV cameras with pieces of cloth so that it could not record anything.
After stealing, Nyandoro would uncover the cameras.
It was established that he was supposed to report to work by 0600 hrs but would report an hour earlier to commit the crime.
As a result, OK Zimbabwe lost ZW$2 527 045.
He was ordered to deposit US$50 as bail
