Four Delta Beverages managers have appeared in court facing charges of defrauding the company of $120 000.
Sindiwa Sachiti, Blessing Mlunjana, Muchaneta Ndachena and Marshal Ranganai Mazengeza, all managers from various departments of Delta Beverages, are alleged to have connived to defraud the company by flouting tender procedures.
It is alleged that the four, acting in common purpose, misrepresented that Delta wanted a supply of Coca-Cola branded glasses worth $125 000.
It is further alleged that Sachiti manufactured and dispatched a fake e-mail which purported that a South African company was supplying these glasses.
The four approved the purchase of those glasses without following tender procedures and Delta deposited cash into the account of the South African company.
The four are alleged to have supplied a Zimbabwean account number where another deposit was made.
The money which was deposited into the account of a Zimbabwean company was later transferred into accounts of the accused persons and they converted it to their own use.
The State further alleges that only glasses worth $5 000 were brought into the country and were sold to Delta by Nyasha Sachiti, husband to first accused.
