Gershem Pasi's disciplinary hearing postponed to Thursday

Gershem Pasi's disciplinary hearing postponed to Thursday

The disciplinary hearing into the conduct of suspended Zimbabwe Revenue Authority Commissioner-General Gershem Pasi, who is facing more than 40 counts of misconduct, has been deferred to Thursday this week. Retired judge Justice Moses Chinhengo, who is presiding over the hearing, postponed the matter to allow lawyers of both parties to agree on the guidelines to follow in the proceedings.

 

Mr Alex Mambosasa and Mr Tazorora Musarurwa of Mambosasa Legal Practitioners are representing suspended Comm-Gen Pasi, while Mr Addington Chinake and Mr Simplicio Bhebe both of Kantor and Immerman, are prosecuting on behalf of Zimra.

The charges against Pasi include signing a $14 million contract with a company called AVIC International for the supply of uniforms and tollgate equipment without following tender procedures. He also stands accused of failure to investigate the alleged fraudulent importation of vehicles by Zimra executives, authorising his daughter to use the authority’s vehicle and approving salary increments without the board’s blessings.
