Shepherd Hove (40) and Ceaser Garapo (41) , who posed as police officers before robbing an unnamed victim of $17 800, appeared at the Harare Magistrates’ Court yesterday facing armed robbery charges and were remanded in custody to January 24 by magistrate Rumbidzai Mugwagwa, who advised them to apply for bail at the High Court.
The State alleges that on December 12 last year, the unnamed complainant parked her vehicle at Eastgate shopping mall in Harare before Hove, Garapo and their other alleged accomplices, who are still at large, confronted her masquerading as police detectives and told her that they suspected the car had been used in committing a series of robberies in Chegutu.
