Dexter Nduna, the 53-year-old former Chegutu West Member of Parliament, has been denied bail on fraud charges. Nduna appeared before the Chegutu Magistrates Court on Monday for a bail application ruling, but was remanded in custody. The former legislator is accused of misrepresenting himself and collecting parking fees from unsuspecting motorists in Chegutu.
The allegations against Nduna are serious, and his denial of bail indicates the severity of the charges. Nduna’s arrest and subsequent denial of bail come as the latest development in a series of controversies surrounding his actions. As the case unfolds, Nduna will spend more time in custody awaiting trial.
