Vice President Constantino Chiwenga packed her estranged wife Marry Mubaiwa’s property and dumped it at her offices in Eastlea, Harare on Friday.
The property was taken from the couple’s Borrowdale Brooke mansion and driven to Marry’s offices by soldiers who were led by Lieutenant Colonel Hove and another senior military officer only identified as Lawayo.
An insider close to the developments told The Standard that the soldiers who numbered about 40, allegedly said they were working under the former Zimbabwe Defence Forces commander. Said the insider:
Chiwenga’s team arrived at around 5:30 pm and that was already after business hours so most people were not around.
There were about 40 of them in a lorry driven by one Zengeni.
They claimed the Vice-President was coming with the other property.
This was meant to instil fear in the two guards who were at the premises.
We are all shocked at Chiwenga’s decision to dump the property at the offices when he knows where Marry stays.
The property included three top-of-the-range vehicles, plates, clothes, blankets and kitchen utensils.
The vehicles included an unregistered Ford Ranger Wildtrak, a Range Rover and a Kia.
Marry was reportedly away from the offices when the property was dumped as she is said to be gravely sick.
Chiwenga and Marry have been living separately since last year, with the VP now staying at a Chinese hotel in Harare.
