A student nurse at Silveira Mission Hospital has fled while authorities detained his accomplice for defrauding a widow out of $1,700 through false promises of enrollment slots for her two daughters at the nursing program.

Police arrested Thomas Wasosa, 36, who now awaits trial in custody. Tapiwa Marongere, a dropout from the nursing school who falsely presented himself as the hospital's medical superintendent, remains at large. Wellington Mutisi, a political commissar for the ruling party, allegedly impersonated a cabinet official and directed the applicants to visit a provincial minister's office. Liliosa Jakaza of Bikita met Wasosa at the hospital in August 2024 while seeking admission information for her daughters, ages 18 and 21.

Wasosa contacted her months later after recruitment advertisements appeared, connecting her with Marongere, who demanded payment for two positions. Jakaza liquidated her four cattle to raise funds, delivering $1,000 in person and transferring $650 electronically. One daughter traveled to meet Mutisi in Harare and later visited the provincial minister's office in Masvingo. As the September start date approached, the suspects became unreachable and promised delayed enrollment or alternative placements. After they failed to refund installment payments as pledged, Jakaza reported the scheme to hospital officials, leading to Wasosa's arrest.
