Fungai Mudzuto (28), employed by Cornerstone Primary and Secondary Schools, appeared before Chitungwiza magistrate Mrs Winfilder Tiatara charged with fraud.<\/p>\n

Prosecutor Ms Monalisa Karemba told the court that between May and July 2022, Mudzuto stole money meant for school fees from Cornerstone schools by receipting higher amounts on issued copies of the receipts given to parents.<\/p>\n

The alleged offence was discovered after school director Ms Elizabeth Makuwane demanded that the pupils pay all owing school fees, and they produced receipts showing that they had made full payments, while the receipt book copies showed they had paid less.<\/p>\n

Fungai Mudzuto pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n

She was remanded to October 10 for the start of her trial.<\/p>\n
