By Munacho Gwamanda-Long-serving Cabinet minister and Zanu PF legal guru Patrick Chinamasa has fallen victim to a daring robbery at his Rusape farm.

A gang of four robbers stormed the property, subduing the security guard and farm manager before ransacking the house in search of money.

“They tied the hands of the farm manager and security guard, force-marched them inside, and covered them with blankets. They overturned beds and sofas, looking for cash, which fortunately was not there,” said Mrs. Chinamasa.

The robbers made off with a brand-new blue Mazda BT-50 double cab, which had only travelled 12,000 km, along with a pistol from the gun cabinet, a box of cocking oil, and a set of kitchen knives.

“They drove away in my car. We suspect they arrived in a white Toyota Wish. Police from Headlands responded the same night, and the case has since been transferred to the Criminal Investigations Department in Rusape,” she added.

Authorities are investigating the heist, which appears to have been a calculated attempt to steal money and valuables.
