How A Prominent Businessman Wanted A Siphatheleni Dead, Plot Unearthed
Published: 2016 February 23 05:27:08 (4018 Views)
A BUSINESSMAN has been arrested in Bulawayo for allegedly plotting to kill an illegal money changer and rob her of $8,000.
Vincent Sibanda of Planet Timbers in Kelvin North Industrial site, allegedly connived with a manager at the company, Gift Gwatidzo, to commit the crime.
Sources told a local newspaper that Sibanda's company was sinking in debt when he hatched a plan to kidnap an usiphatheleni and kill her on the company premises.
It is alleged that Sibanda promised Gwatidzo a share in the company if he assisted him to lure a money changer to the company on the pretext of wanting to change an equivalent of $8,000 from South African rand.
Gwatidzo grew cold feet and bailed on Sibanda's plan by reporting the issue on Saturday, the day the murder was supposed to be committed.
Gwatidzo also revealed that Sibanda had said they would use a pair of shoe laces to strangle the victim.
Their victim allegedly got suspicious when Sibanda failed to show her the money he wanted to exchange for the United States dollars and fled the scene.
Police arrested Sibanda on Saturday after Gwatidzo sold him out.
