Byo police arrest money printers

Insp Ncube said follow-ups were made which led to their arrest on Saturday at around 7AM at a local hotel that the three suspects had booked. “The detectives managed to recover 26 US$50, 37 US$20, and eight US$10 fake notes, all amounting to US$2 120 fake notes, which were wrapped inside a tissue roll. Further interviews led to the recovery of a white HP desk jet 2710 which was used by the accused persons in photocopying and printing fake notes,” said Insp Ncube.

He added that three bond papers with prints of fake notes were also recovered at a house in Cowdray Park. Insp Ncube said the suspects also indicated that they hired the services of a man only known as David Chikara Allias Gushaz who provided them with transport in moving around other areas when they were disposing of fake notes.
