The Minister of Mines and Mining Development Winston Chitando has denied allegations levelled against him that he was involved in the corrupt deals at Hwange Colliery. Speaking before the Parliamentary Committee on Mines Chitando had this to say
When I was the Hwange board chairperson, I never made any decisions on my own pertaining to Hwange, and any decision which was made was by the entire board, and all I can say is that there is need to retrieve the minutes and supporting documents to prove that I made decisions on my own.
The forensic investigator must do his work, and if there is any amount owing he should go to his books. I do not see why he should have any additional powers through invoking the Prevention of Corruption Act because he (forensic auditor) already has leeway to go through the company books.
