Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>BULAWAYO, Apr. 12 (NewsDay Live) – Former Highlanders Football Club Chief Executive Officer Brian Moyo and Bulawayo Chiefs FC administrator Andrew Mandigora have been granted bail following their arrest on allegations of defrauding their respective clubs of US$5,000 through inflated player transfer fees.<\/p>\n

Brian Moyo was represented by Messrs Ndlovu Mehluli and Partners through Nxumalo and Ncube<\/p>\n

The duo appeared at the Bulawayo Magistrates Court on Saturday, where they were granted bail of US$200 each. As part of their bail conditions, they were ordered to report once a week at their nearest police station, not to interfere with witnesses, and to continue residing at their current addresses.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors allege that Moyo and Mandigora conspired to manipulate player transfer deals, inflating the amounts involved and pocketing the difference to the prejudice of their clubs.<\/p>\n

The charges have sent shockwaves through the local football fraternity, raising concerns over transparency in player dealings.<\/p>\n

Highlanders treasurer Khoza was in attendance at the court hearing, though he did not comment on the matter.<\/p>\n

The case has been remanded to a later date for further proceedings.<\/p>\n
