Former Intermarket Holdings CEO Nicholas Vingirai, who fled the country in 2004 after being accused of externalising funds, was arrested at Harare International Airport yesterday soon after arrival back in Zimbabwe.
Detectives from the CID's serious frauds section arrested the businessman after being tipped off he was coming back.
He has been reportedly living in Singapore since he fled the country. He was arrested in Taiwan in August this year after straying from his base in Singapore and the authorities there said they would deport him. It was, however unclear whether he was arrested after being deported or he voluntarily opted to retirn home.
