By Staff Writer
THE ex-National Social Security Authority Investment Director who stands accused of swindling US$29 000 in a property purchase deal has already been granted US$500 bail.
Brian Murewa appeared before Harare magistrate Donald Ndirowei charged with fraud and was ordered to surrender his passport and return to court on May 14.
The ex-top official allegedly misrepresented that the guest house purchased in by NSSA in Kariba cost US$240 000 when in fact the purchase price was US$215 000.
Murewa has been on the run for the past 14 months before being arrested at his Borrowdale home this week.
