The court cleared Fastino Ngoma of all theft claims yesterday. He worked at Shamva Mining Company before leaving his job. The company bought him a car with an agreement that he would pay them back through small payments over time. He stopped working there before he finished paying for the vehicle.
Both sides went to a referee who decided what should happen next. The referee told Ngoma he must either give back $28,824.23 or return the car within three weeks. The referee also ordered the mining company to pay Ngoma $16,800. The company gave Ngoma his money as ordered.
Ngoma brought the car back to his former workplace as the referee said he should. Because both sides did what the referee told them to do, the law people decided not to press charges anymore. They threw away the case before it even went to trial.
