Police have arrested two men who defrauded a 50-year-old woman from Bulawayo of R45 500 after they sold her a Cowdray Park residential stand that does not belong to them.
Titus Sibanda, 41, and Edwin Sitsa, 44, reportedly sold the stand in November last year and the matter only came to light when the owner of the stand confronted her while she was developing it.
A report was filed with the police and subsequent investigations led to Sibanda and Sitsa’s arrest.
Confirming the arrest, National police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi said: “The ZRP confirms the arrest of Titus Sibanda aged 41 and Edwin Sitsa aged 44 in connection with a case of fraud in which they allegedly duped a 50-year-old Bulawayo woman after they sold her a residential stand which does not belong to them in Cowdray Park, Bulawayo, in November 2021.
“The suspects charged the complainant R67 500, and she paid R45 500. The offence came to light in December 2022 after the owner confronted her for developing his residential stand,” he said.
