Dorcas Vambe, wife of musician Mambo Dhuterere, has been arraigned before a Harare Magistrate on fraud charges for allegedly duping a local politician of $16,000 in a botched car deal ¹.
*The Alleged Fraud Scheme*
Vambe, 36, allegedly connived with her brother Kudakwashe Vambe, who is still at large, to defraud the complainant. The duo claimed they could purchase a Toyota Hilux GD6 in Botswana and import two cars duty-free, using a waiver allegedly granted to Vambe by President Emmerson Mnangagwa as a token of appreciation for her music.
*The Complainant's Loss*
The complainant, interested in the deal, handed over $16,000 to Vambe, who acknowledged receipt and committed to delivering two Toyota Hilux GD6 vehicles within two weeks. However, Vambe failed to fulfill her obligation, leading to her arrest.
*Bail and Court Appearance*
Vambe was released on $100 bail and is expected to appear in court on January 15, 2025.
