Four brothers from Epworth, Paul, Sign, Partially and Simon Makamelo, teamed up with Tonderai Norest Chibvongodze, Christopher Sithole, Kelvin Zimomo and Innocent Kaso and robbed a family on November 29 and robbed a Harare family of US$50 000, a car and other valuables.
Paul, Sign and Partially appeared before the Harare Magistrates’ Court along with Chibvongodze, Sithole and Zimomo charged with armed robbery while Simon and Kaso are still on the run.
The facts of the matter are that on November 29 and at around 10pm, the gang hatched a plan to rob the complainant.
They armed themselves with a pistol and iron bars and went to the victim’s house in Eastlea, Harare where they scaled over a precast wall to enter the place.
They reportedly forced open the back door using an iron bar before manhandling the victim and his wife, threatening them with death.
They ted them with a cloth before ransacking the whole house, stealing a safe that contained US$50 000, a tool box containing spanners, a small compressor, an iPhone 8 handset, a Huawei N90 and a box containing jewellery and important documents.
They then stole a Volvo vehicle (Reg number ADA 9608) into which they loaded the stolen property and drove off.
