Mujuru's ally in bid to defraud council

Former Zanu-PF secretary for Administration Didymus Mutasa's claims that he bought a Rusape Town Council house leased to him in 1984 are not backed by any record of payment for the property.

The ex-Presidential Affairs Minister reportedly arm-twisted the Rusape Town Council to lease to him Number 4 Mbuya Nehanda (also known as Stand 160 Mbuya Nehanda) but never paid anything to council.

He is still in occupation of the property, a mansion by Rusape's standards, but he has never paid rates ever since he occupied the house 30 years ago.
