Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>A Mutare-based 65-year-old African Apostolic Church bishop, Charles Tekeshe, allegedly broke into a congregant\u2019s house and stole US$10 800 that was stashed under a bed.<\/p>\n

Tekeshe recently appeared before Mutare magistrate, Ivy Musavengana charged with unlawful entry into premises as defined in Section 131(2) (e) of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act, Chapter 9:23.<\/p>\n

Tekeshe was granted bail and remanded to 27 March for trial.<\/p>\n

Prosecuting, Sandra Mlambo said Tekeshe broke into Hedsen Mabhutso\u2019s house through the window and stole US$10 800. Said Mlambo:<\/p>\n

On May 18, 2021, and in Dangamvura, Mutare, Mr. Mabhutso locked his children in the house and left for his workplace in the company of his wife.<\/p>\n

He secured all his property, including the US$10 800 which was stashed under the bed in his bedroom.<\/p>\n

At around 10 AM, Tekeshe was seen arriving at Mr Mabhutso\u2019s house by the complainant\u2019s eight-year-old son. Tekeshe was holding a blue box in his hands.<\/p>\n

Tekeshe inquired whether the complainant and his wife were present through the window and was told they were away.<\/p>\n

Tekeshe allegedly ordered the minor child to open the kitchen window.<\/p>\n

The child complied and Tekeshe went into the house through the window. Said Mlambo:<\/p>\n

While inside the house, Tekeshe proceeded to Mr Mabhutso\u2019s bedroom where he stole US$10 800 before going out through the same window.<\/p>\n

Tekeshe allegedly ordered the minor to wipe off his feet and fingerprints using a cloth before he left the house.<\/p>\n

Mabhutso returned home on the same day around 7 PM and his son narrated what had happened during his absence.<\/p>\n

He went to his bedroom and discovered that his money had been stolen.<\/p>\n

Mabhutso reported the matter at ZRP Dangamvura and Tekeshe was arrested. Nothing was recovered.<\/p>\n
