Madokero Woman Loses US$20,000 in Daylight House Break-In

A Madokero woman lost US$20,000 after thieves broke into her home while she was attending a church service on Sunday.

Patience Satuma returned from church around 2 pm to find that her bedroom had been broken into. The thief reportedly stole the cash, which she had kept in her jacket inside the wardrobe.

Harare provincial police spokesperson Inspector Luckmore Chakanza confirmed the case and urged members of the public to avoid keeping large sums of money at home or workplaces. He advised people to use banks and consider safer alternatives such as plastic money.

“Police are investigating an unlawful entry and theft case involving cash in a house in Madokero. The total value stolen is US$20,000 and nothing has been recovered,” said Inspector Chakanza.
