A Reserve Bank Of Zimbabwe employee in Harare, Carlos Nyamasoka stole a bunch of old Zimbabwe dollars and sold them at CBZ.

Nyamasoka is employed as a general worker in Harare.

The value of the notes was $4900 but he sold them for just $700.

A  Harare magistrate - Tendai Mahwe sentenced him to 15 months in jail but set aside three months.

A further eight months were slashed on condition that he pays back $4 900.

He will now perform 140 hours of community service.

The court heard that CBZ officials became suspicions at the rate at which Nyamasoka was selling the notes.

Investigations were carried leading to his arrest.
