Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Two armed robbers got away with over US$13 000 and R8 000 after they pounced on Hamara fruit and vegetable supermarket located along Fife street between 3rd and 4th avenue in Bulawayo.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred around 9 AM on Monday 30 May 2022.<\/p>\n

According to the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP), the total value of cash taken was US$ 13 242, R8 892, and ZWL$5 840.<\/p>\n

ZRP spokesperson in Bulawayo Metropolitan Province, Inspector Abednico Ncube, said the two suspects entered the supermarket armed with pistols and ordered everyone to lie down on the ground.<\/p>\n

He said the suspects grabbed an employee and pointed a gun at his head and demanded money.<\/p>\n

The employee led the suspects to an office where they kept the money and ordered the safe to be opened. Said Inspector Ncube:<\/p>\n

The complainant two complied and gave them cash amounting to over US$11000 plus over R6000 and over ZW$5000.<\/p>\n

They proceeded to another office where there was a safe and ordered complainant two to open the safe and she complied and took US$210.<\/p>\n

Insp Ncube said the suspects started kicking another employee on his belly, demanding keys to the manager\u2019s safe.<\/p>\n

Another employee was forced to open the safe but it was empty. Added Inspector Ncube:<\/p>\n

The accused persons then went back to the tills where they collected more cash from the three tills amounting to US$1 150 and R2 000 and left the scene.<\/p>\n

The employees later filed a report at ZRP, Bulawayo Central, and the police attended the scene.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Inspector Ncube exhorted businesses not to keep large sums of money on their premises.<\/p>\n

He also commended the four employees for complying with the armed robbers\u2019 instructions as this prevented the loss of lives.<\/p>\n
