Chihuri Agrees To Out Of Court Settlement, Starts Payment

Former police commissioner-general Augustine Chihuri has agreed to an out of court settlement in a High court case where he is accused of having impounded five cars and a house from a Harare businessman.

It is alleged that Bigboy Pachirera had approached the courts seeking an order to make Chihuri pay him compensation and damages of $2 968 000 incurred after his vehicles and property were impounded, causing him to lose business.

Daily News learnt from Pachirera’s lawyer, Rungano Mahuni, that some of the payments were already being processed.

Pachirera narrated that he and his family had a torrid time in 2013 as the police homicide department pestered him with orders from Chihuri. Pachirera through his lawyer recited:

At first, I was accused of theft and put into police custody where I was held for seven days before being brought before a court. They would come (police) holding guns at me and force me into signing affidavits one of which gave Chihuri powers to take my Highfield house valued at $50 000.

When I finally appeared in court I was released because police had over-detained me but they did not stop hunting for me.

All the cars that they claimed to have been stolen I had personally bought them from Zimoco here in Zimbabwe. They all had records of my Mercedes Benz ML 350 Formatic and Jeep Cherokee and the three trucks I used in my road construction business.
