Bulawayo Woman’s Luxury Car Vanishes While Getting Washed

A 40-year-old woman from Bulawayo has been left distressed after her car was stolen in plain sight of staff at a car wash on the outskirts of the Central Business District.

The vehicle, a white Toyota Fortuner with South African registration plates valued at US$22,000, was taken on Monday evening while it was left at the car wash for a cleaning service.

Police in Bulawayo have since launched a search for the vehicle. Inspector Abednico Ncube, spokesperson for the ZRP in Bulawayo Province, confirmed the incident to the Chronicle and appealed to the public for any information that could assist in recovering the vehicle and apprehending the perpetrator(s). He said:

Police are appealing for anyone with information that may lead to the arrest of an unknown accused person who stole a white Toyota Fortuner with a GP number plate.

On the 18th of November 2024 at around 1000 hours, the complainant, a female adult aged 40 years of Reigate suburb, asked her employee to take her vehicle for a carwash.

He then took the vehicle, a South African-registered, white Toyota Fortuner, Registration Number JN10 YP GP to Tunnel Carwash located along R. Mugabe Way and left it with the carwash staff so that it could be washed and he returned to work.

At around 4 PM, the complainant went to the car wash in the company of her driver intending to collect the vehicle.

She was advised by the manager that the vehicle had been stolen as they saw the car being driven off along Matopos Road due south and enquired from his subordinates if they had released the vehicle.

None of them confirmed having given the keys to anyone nor authorized the release of the vehicle.

Smells like a well planned deal by both the lady who owns the car and Car wash owner, the deal is to defraud the insurance company.

Hapana nyaya apa. Vehicle Theft Squad must grab the car wash owner by the ear. For a start, would he casually watch a customer driving out before payment? Who is responsible for the vehicle keys? Who clears cars to leave? The car wash owner suspected theft. Why did he not call the owner and the police? Obviously he didn't want anyone arrested. He wanted the vehicle to be as far away as possible before anybody could could follow it up. Very unsophisticated small crooks.

Whose car was it in the first place. Some Zimbos hire cars from car rental companies in South Africa and bring them for festive season in Zimbabwe. Whilst in Zimb they may sell the vehicle and make a police report. The car rental will then get compensation from insurance. The complainant may try to disguise by leaving the car at a car wash and then arrange for its theft from their. There is foul play here. The complainant's driver may also be in darkness

driver and car wash boys first suspects.not a clean job .but driver maybe told his friend mbavha .but would car wash boys do a reckless act like that Knowing kuti it will come to bite them ndipei answer vanha vepindula anditi zvekutamba

All the car wash boys must be rounded up and taken for serious interrogation.. Definitely 1 or 2 will tell exactly what the plot was. If the owner or management of the car wash are interested in maintaining their customer base amd dispellling mistrust in car washes due to this incident, they need to hrlp police fish out the who amoung their workforce worked with these thieves.
