A woman from Rusape is facing up to a decade in prison after authorities say she dodged electricity payments for over two years by rigging her meter. Monica Mubaya got busted when a loss control inspector showed up at her place in Tsanzaguru and found the alleged bypass setup. Prosecutors claim she ran free power from mid-2023 through late 2025 without anything showing up on the meter readings.
This comes right after another Rusape resident got slapped with the full 10-year sentence for doing basically the same thing. That guy physically rewired his house to skip the meter completely, and the court threw the book at him under the Electricity Act. The power company is running inspections everywhere and warning people that more busts are definitely coming.
