Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>A 25-YEAR-OLD Harare woman has been taken to court for allegedly masquerading as a travel agent , in the process defrauding a prospective client of Euro 500 after promising to secure her a Czech Republic visa and work permit.<\/p>\n

Vongai Huruva appeared before magistrate Dennis Mangosi on Wednesday and was granted US$100 bail while the matter was remanded to July 11.<\/p>\n

The complainant is Leonne Mhonda (25).<\/p>\n

The court heard that on April 24, 2024, the complainant Leonne Mhonda visited Huruva’s office in central Harare after being made to believe that she was a travel agent and could secure her a work permit, accommodation letter, contract letter and visa to the Czech Republic.<\/p>\n

The court heard that Huruva demanded Euro 550 for the whole process and the complainant allegedly paid the sum.<\/p>\n

Huruva allegedly later became evasive, prompting Mhonda to file a police report after discovering that she had been scammed.<\/p>\n
