Television and radio personality Tichafa Matambanadzo, popularly known as Tich Mataz, together with Zanu-PF Hatfield constituency losing candidate Acie Lumumba Mutumanje, have been taken to the High Court on allegations of swindling Zimpapers' StarFM radio station of $75 410.

The two men are jointly cited as first and second respondents alongside two other firms - Hamtech Investments and Onesay Investments - also cited as third and fourth respondents respectively.

According to the court summons filed on Friday last week under case number HC4917/15, Matambanadzo is alleged to have misrepresented to various StarFM clients that included the European Union, United States Embassy and the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec), among several others.

"The first and second defendants (Matambanadzo and Mutumanje) fraudulently billed clients and used third and fourth defendants' (Hamtech Investments and Onesay Investments) accounts to divert funds which were rightfully the plaintiff's (StarFM),"" the summons read.
