Harare Man Scammed in Residential Stand Deal
In another shocking incident, a Harare man Steven Gandiwa (35) fell victim to a fraudulent residential stand deal, resulting in the loss of US$18,500. The scam, orchestrated by Polo Kauma from Ashdown Park, unfolded in March 2021, leaving Steven in financial ruin.
Deception and Payment
Polo Kauma deceived Steven by claiming ownership of a residential stand in Tynwald and offering it for sale. Believing the falsehood, Steven paid the full sum in cash to secure the stand.

Ownership Dispute and Demolition
After developing the property, Steven faced an unexpected setback when Keddy Mushangwe claimed legal ownership of the land. Efforts to contact Polo Kauma proved futile, as he had become unreachable. As a result, the house that Steven had built on the land was demolished.
Appeal for Information
Harare provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Luckmore Chakanza, urged the public to come forward with any information that could lead to the arrest of Polo Kauma.
Conclusion
Chioneso Ephraim’s brutal death shocked Chinhoyi and nearby regions. Similar cases, like the recent H-Metro report of a UK woman murdered by her husband, highlight the rising trend of spousal killings.
