Two Nash Paints workers went to court after they took US$19,591 from the firm.
Branch head Takudzwa Gorejena and branch boss Chipo Brinia Mapfumo heard their case at the Harare court. Judge Isheunesu Matova let them pay US$100 each to stay free.
Nash Paints sent its top worker, Caroline Mundunga, to speak for the firm. Court papers said Mapfumo ran the Gazaland shop in Highfield. Gorejena led the Chikwana shop in Chitungwiza.
The state lawyer, Rufaro Chonzi, said both worked at Gazaland from September 2024 to January 2025. They had to record sales in the shop's records, but they wrote down less than what left the store room.
Nash Paints business head Nelson Tshabalala found strange numbers in January 2025 when he checked the Gazaland shop's books. The firm sent more people to investigate.
On January 18, these people found big mistakes in the store records. They learned that paint worth US$19,591 went missing from September 1, 2024, to January 17, 2025, when Mapfumo and Gorejena worked there.
The two could not say what happened to the missing paint. No one has found the paint. The law people keep looking into what happened.
