Harare – Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) has arrested, Macduff Madega, a Zimbabwean High Court Sherriff.

Madega is alleged to have been instructed to auction a stand by a judgment creditor in fulfillment of a judgment debt.

According to ZACC papers, it is alleged that Madega attached and auctioned the property to the highest bidder. However, before he confirmed the sale of the property, an objection was received which he presided over resulting in him not confirming the sale.

It is alleged after allowing the objection to stand, Madega put the same property for sale by private treaty and did not disclose to the buyer of the previous objection.

Investigations are ongoing on various allegations against Madega. He was meant to appear in court on Thursday 9 June 2022.
