Harare, ZIMBABWE:

Court papers against the beleaguered Marry Chiwenga wife to Vice President Constantino Chiwenga have revealed that she at one stage attempted to end Chiwenga’s life by denying him medical attention.

The papers make an additional charge of attempted murder on Marry Chiwenga who already has a host of other charges against her.

A Court Affidavit page copy.

Marry arrived at Rotten Row Magistrates’ Court in Harare this morning where she is facing allegations of externalising US$1 million and fraudulently seeking to solemnise her marriage with neither the husband’s knowledge nor consent.

According to a Zacc memo seen by NewsDay, Marry, mentioned as chief executive officer of East Town Holdings and shareholder of a company called Tarnor Investments, externalised close to a million dollars by misrepresentations on proforma invoices before converting the money to personal use.
“During the period extending from October 2018 to May 2019, the accused would instruct Memory Chakuinga, who is the managing director of two South Africa-based companies, namely Falcon Projects (Pvt) Ltd and Bonnette Electrical (Pvt) Ltd, which are based in Pretoria, South Africa, to raise proforma invoices for the purchases of either event tents, chairs and prepaid meters for consumption in Zimbabwe, when in actual fact the accused knew very well that after the funds were transferred to South Africa, she would then divert them for other personal purposes,”
the memo read.

In count one, Marry is said to have sent her driver Carrington Kazingizi and Terrence Mutandwa to China with US$114 000.
The money exited Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport without any declaration being made to the authorities, in contravention of the Exchange Control Act.

In November 2018, Marry allegedly instructed Chakuinga to come up with a proforma for the supply of event tents and chairs, which were then sent to CBZ Bank and also to the accused.
“On December 17, the accused on the strength of the proforma invoice, caused CBZ Bank to transfer US$201 846 through outgoing telegraphic transfer into a Falcon Projects Suppliers (Pvt) Ltd South African FNB Bank account number,”
the memorandum read.
“Instead of the funds being used for the purchase of event tents and chairs, the accused instructed Memory Chakuinga to divert the funds to Range Rover Centre Menyln towards the purchase of the accused’s personal vehicle, a Range Rover Autobiography.”

The vehicle was registered in South Africa under Mubaiwa’s name.
Allegations are that in February 2019, the accused again instructed Chakuinga to come up with a proforma invoice for US$307 545 and diverted the funds to purchasing a house in South Africa, which was registered under the name of a company owned by Marry.

She is also accused of sourcing R3 million from a friend to buy another Range Rover and gave her US$230 769.

Another transaction involving her friend was undertaken, where the accused is said to have externalised more than US$36 923.

Earlier today(Monday) the local Newspaper, 'Daily News' reported that Detectives from the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) who arrested Vice President Constantino Chiwenga, Marry Chiwenga nee Mubaiwa, on Saturday, pounced on her while she was in the bathroom and nak_ed.

This was revealed by Marry’s lawyer, Beatrice Mtetwa in an interview with the Daily News on Sunday. Said Mtetwa:

“She was in the bathroom in her bedroom when the men suddenly opened the door while she was nak_ed and told her that she was under arrest.

“They searched her bedroom without saying what they were looking for. She was taken to the police.

“After that, they came back to the house and Marry’s mother who had accompanied her to the police was not allowed back into the house. She had her car parked at her daughter’s house.”

Mtetwa further revealed that after her arrest, Marry could not access her medication, with her doctors seemingly afraid of coming to attend to her.

MALARIA VACCINE PROVES HIGHLY EFFECTIVE IN BURKINA FASO.

A vaccine against malaria has been shown to be highly effective in trials in Africa, holding out the real possibility of slashing the death toll of a disease that kills 400,000 mostly small children every year. The vaccine, developed by scientists at the Jenner Institute of Oxford University, showed up to 77% efficacy in a trial of 450 children in Burkina Faso over 12 months. The hunt for a malaria vaccine has been going on the best part of a century. One, the Mosquirix vaccine developed by GlaxoSmithKline, has been through lengthy clinical trials but is only partially effective, preventing 39% of malaria cases and 29% of severe malaria cases among small children in Africa over four years. It is being piloted by the World Health Organization in parts of Kenya, Ghana and Malawi. The Oxford vaccine is the first to meet the WHO goal of 75% efficacy against the mosquito-borne parasite disease. Larger trials are now beginning, involving 4,800 children in four countries.

SOUTH AFRICA'S RICHEST WOMAN OFFERS 1.4 MILLION RAND REWARD FOR ZUMA'S SON & GUPTA.

One of the South Africa's richest women Magda Wierzycka is offering R1.4 million of her own money to help authorities track down and arrest Ajay Gupta and Jacob Zuma’s son Duduzane who are understood to be fugitives. The CEO of Sygnia Group and former head of institutional business at Coronation Fund Managers and former CEO of the African Harvest Group is adamant that this is a reward and not a bounty. “A bounty is a concept of hunting for people. The idea here is that people keep their eyes open and report Duduzane [Zuma] and the Guptas if spotted to the authorities so there is an arrest. This is not people hunting for criminals and people taking law into their own hands “I don’t believe that they are walking around in shopping malls. There are people hiding them, there are people shielding them. From my information I know that they are protected by bodyguards, they and their families and anybody else who might be sheltering these people can assist. It is an ap...

South Africa is a leading video entertainment and internet company, MultiChoice has warned that if communications authority of the country proceeds with heavy-handed regulations for the pay TV market, it could cost thousands of jobs in South Africa.

CAR STOLEN BY KENYAN EX-MINISTER FOUND ABANDONED.

Nairobi, KENYA: A classic Mercedes Benz stolen from a showroom in Nairobi by former minister Paul Ngei has been found in a deplorable state. Photos of the car which were shared on social media showed it mounted on stones and without wheels, its bonnet wide open and its paint cracking up. The Mercedes Benz 300SEL registration number KNM 190 was a premium car in its heyday. Paul Joseph Ngei (18 October 1923 – 15 August 2004) was a Kenyan politician who was imprisoned for his role in the anti-colonial movement, but who went on to hold several government ministerial positions after Kenya became independent. Paul Ngei walked into the famous car showroom in Nairobi (DT Dobie) in the 1970s and drove away with the vehicle never to return or pay for it. At the time of its release, it was the world's fastest four-door car and when Ngei was pushed to pay for the vehicle, he would always refer the agents to State House and ask them to send the bill there. The rogue minister drove the car for m...

LARGEST SINGLE MASS CHILD SACRIFICE IN HISTORY DISCOVERED.

Lima, PERU: Archaeologists in Peru have unearthed what is believed to be the largest single mass child sacrifice in history. The bodies of 227 victims, aged between five and 14, were found near the coastal town of Huanchaco, north of Peru's capital Lima. The children were believed to have been sacrificed over 500 years ago. The discovery comes barely a year after 200 child victims of human sacrifice were found at two other sites in the country. Archaeologists told AFP news agency that some of the bodies in this latest collection still had hair and skin when they were dug up. The children show signs of being killed during wet weather, and were buried facing the sea, meaning they were probably sacrificed to appease the Chimú's gods. It is unclear in which year the incident took place. The Chimú resided along Peru's northern coast and were one of the region's most powerful civilisations. They reached prominence between 1200 and 1400 before being conque...
