<p>A High Court judge has dismissed an application by a local pensioner, Duncan Hugh Cocksedge, who was seeking reimbursement of his US$179 541 by CABS.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.zimlive.com/judge-dismisses-depositors-us179000-debt-claim-from-cabs/"><span>ZimLive</span></a> reported that Cocksedge approached the courts for redress after his US$179 000 bank balance which was being held in a CABS account was wholly converted to local currency through the government’s Exchange Control Directive RT120/2018.</p>
<p>In his ruling, Justice Webster Chinamhora averred that it was not for the courts to change “political questions”.</p>
<p>The judge stated that the regulation of banking activities to achieve economic stability and protect the banking public was the prerogative of the Executive. He said:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Put differently, how the government makes policies aimed to achieve monetary stability and incentivise the generation of foreign exchange in the national interest is a political question, best left to the politicians.</p>
<p>Courts in this jurisdiction are familiar with the political questions doctrine and how to deal with a case where this arises.</p>
<p>No basis exists, in my view, for not deferring to the minister who made the policy decision on behalf of the Executive.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The judge also said Cocksedge had not shown his court that the deposit in his account was realised from offshore or foreign currency cash deposits. He added:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The applicant has not shown that the provisions of the Exchange Control Directive RT120/2018 and the Finance (No.2) Act 2019 are not laws of general application.</p>
<p>As a result, I do not find any merit in the applicant’s argument and am inclined to dismiss his application.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Cocksedge’s claim was for reimbursement of his US$179 541 by CABS.</p>
<p>In his alternative claim, Cocksedge said the conduct of the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) and the Finance Minister was “unlawful, grossly unreasonable and irrational”.</p>
<p>He said the changes in law, effectively amount to unlawful and unconstitutional expropriation of value.</p>
<p>CABS did not dispute that Cocksedge had deposited US$179 541.45 before February 2023.</p>
<p>It said its banking services are regulated by RBZ adding that it had no disputes with the latter.</p>
<p>The central bank argued that Cocksedge had no right to challenge the provisions of the Exchange Control Directive.</p>
<p>It said CABS had acted according to the law and as such, Cocksedge could not try to impugn a lawful act.</p>
<p>The Minister of Finance Mthuli Ncube argued that the Exchange Control Directive does not take away Cocksedges rights.</p>
<p>In his application, Cocksedge had cited CABS as the first respondent and the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe as the second respondent.</p>

CABS Receives Historic €15M Credit Facility From European Investment Bank

<p><strong>Zimbabwean journalist and documentary filmmaker, Hopewell Chin’ono has said he is fighting for a better Zimbabwe for today’s youth because it is possible for them to lead decent lives. We present his statement below.</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Why do I fight for a better Zimbabwe for today’s youth?</p>
<p>I bought my first property in Chisipite when I was 29 years of age.</p>
<p>It was through a CABS mortgage.</p>
<p>Today a doctor, lawyer, engineer or journalist can’t buy the same US$500k property, because there is no money in the economy due to LOOTING, plunder and misgovernance.</p>
<p>So I find it weird when some youths fight me for trying to let them see that their future is being destroyed, and that if things are fixed, they too could live anywhere they want.</p>
<p>That is why I fight against corruption, it is because I know the both sides of life, and I want those on the other side of the railway line to also be able to cross the tracks.</p>
<p>It can be done because I and many others are living proof of it, but you won’t be able to do it unless we have a proper economy.</p>
<p>Why don’t we have a proper economy? The ZANUPF looting, the corruption, the plunder and the incompetence.
You won’t be able to get the chances I got in life unless you are part of the looters.</p>
<p>Now is that the kind of Zimbabwe that you want where your education counts for nothing, and where the youth celebrate tax dodgers and crooks instead of hard work.</p>
<p>The only way today’s youth are going to be able to live in a luxury property in Chisipite is if there is investment in Zimbabwe that allowed banks to offer mortgages.</p>
<p>Investors both local and foreign won’t come unless the government respects the rule of law, implements political and economic reforms and stops the looting and the plunder!</p>
<p>Now is it a crime for me to say these things so that today’s youth also get the same chances that I got?</p>
<p>It is not normal in any decent society to buy your home cash, it only happens in banana republics.</p>
<p>Homes are bought through mortgages, ask yourself why there are no mortgages today for professionals, then you will understand my fight against corruption!</p>
<p>#NoToCorruption #NoToLooters</p>

Chin'ono: Why Do I Fight For A Better Zimbabwe For Today’s Youth?

<p>CABS Gwanda Branch was reportedly closed after 3 employees tested positive for COVID-19, the Chronicle reports. This was revealed by CABS Managing Director Mr. Mehluli Mpofu who revealed the branch will be closed until 7 December:</p>
<blockquote><p>We regret to advise that three of our staff at Gwanda branch tested positive for Covid-19 following PCR tests. Please note that the branch has been temporarily closed until 7 December 2020 to allow for disinfection of the branch and self-isolation of our staff.</p>
<p>We encourage you to make use of our digital channels, internet and mobile banking platforms to reduce the risk of exposure and spread of Covid-19 during this period. We will continue to monitor the situation and implement changes to ensure a high level of safety for all our stakeholders.</p></blockquote>
<p>Apart from the reports that CABS Gwanda is closed, Gwanda made headlines for running out of isolation space this week. Reports of companies closing down due to COVID-19 have drastically reduced since positive cases have drastically reduced over the last few months.</p>
<p>Zimbabwe has so far recorded close to <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2020/11/28/zimbabwe-coronavirus-covid-19-update-27-11-2020/">10 000 cases and close to 280 deaths</a> since the first case was recorded in Zimbabwe on 20 March 2020.</p>

CABS Gwanda Closed As 3 Employees Contract COVID-19

<p>CABS has closed its Gwanda branch after three (3) workers tested positive for the coronavirus, the bank said in a statement on Wednesday.</p>
<p>The bank’s managing director, Mr Mehluli Mpofu said the branch will be closed until December 7. Reads Mpofu’s statement in part:</p>
<blockquote><p>We regret to advise that three of our staff at Gwanda branch tested positive for Covid-19 following PCR tests. Please note that the branch has been temporarily closed until 7 December 2020 to allow for disinfection of the branch and self-isolation of our staff.</p>
<p>We encourage you to make use of our digital channels, internet and mobile banking platforms to reduce the risk of exposure and spread of Covid-19 during this period.</p>
<p>We will continue to monitor the situation and implement changes to ensure a high level of safety for all our stakeholders.</p></blockquote>
<p>Gwanda Town has recorded about 50 cases of the coronavirus over the past two weeks which has resulted in the shortage of isolation space.</p>
<p>The town’s only isolation centre housed at the Gwanda Provincial Hospital can only accommodate 16 people while Phakama Clinic isolation centre is still under construction.</p>
<p>Gwanda Provincial Hospital acting medical superintendent, Dr Blessing Gwarimbo said as a result of the shortage in quarantine space patients were being discharged to self-isolate at home even though their conditions required them to be housed at the isolation centre.</p>
<p>This is happening when the country, particularly in Matebeleland provinces, has in the recent past recorded a rise in the number of new coronavirus cases raising fears of a second wave.</p>
<p>Whilst most of the cases have been recorded in schools, the government is adamant schools won’t be closed.</p>

<p>Old Mutual will merge the companies into 3 groups: insurance, wealth management, and banking.</p>
<p>Here’s how the group’s companies are (2016 Organogram)</p>
<p>The Group’s chairman Johannes Gawaxab commented on the change:</p>
<blockquote><p>Having reviewed the current structure of the Old Mutual Zimbabwe Limited Group, the directors have concluded that the interests of both shareholders and customers would be best served by restructuring the group into a simpler and more optimal outfit.</p>
<p>The process entails the proposed clustering of the Old Mutual Zimbabwe Limited businesses into three clusters on the basis of the major lines of business which the group operates, namely, insurance, wealth management and banking — subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals as necessary.</p>
<p>Old Mutual Zimbabwe Limited will remain as the holding company of these three clusters</p>
<p>The exercise is also intended to streamline the ownership of Old Mutual Insurance Company.</p>
<p>It is expected that this will result in a reduction of the legal entities in the Group.</p></blockquote>

<p>A Chitungwiza man, Donald Shorai Jima (29) of Zengeza, has appeared before the Harare Magistrate, Barbara Mateko charged with unauthorised use or possession of debit cards.</p>
<p>It is alleged that the accused and his accomplices who are still at large cloned bank debit cards belonging to Amanda Zietsman, John Clark and Valentine Vincent Oldfiel (CABS account holders) and transferred a total of $69 000.</p>
<p>They are argued to have used the money to buy expensive wines, beer and agricultural inputs.</p>
<p>Jima and his accomplices are reported to have transferred the stolen money into their fraudulent Ecocash Accounts. Jima was arrested on April 26 after he went to Karimbika’s Hardware with printouts from EcoCash to confirm that he had not received the $500 which was still outstanding.</p>

Man Swipes $60 000 Using Cloned Bank Cards To Buy Wine

<p>Junior police officers were allegedly duped of over US$4 million by their bosses in an opaque housing scheme financed by CABS, a report claims.</p>
<p>The Zimbabwe Republic Police was allocated land in Hatcliff in Harare by the Ministry of Local Government for the development of a title-holding individual home ownership scheme for police officers.</p>
<p>However, out of 900 housing stands that were developed, only two showhouses have been constructed since 2011.</p>
<p>The affected junior officers have engaged lawyers to compel the ZRP to give them stands but were told by their bosses to claim refunds in RTGS Dollars.</p>
<p>A police officer affected botched deal, who spoke to the Zimbabwe Independent had this to say:</p>
<blockquote><p>The problem is we are now getting refunds in bond notes. We won’t be able to buy anything with the money. They are no longer communicating with us and the same response we have been getting since 2011 that a letter was sent to the commissioner on the status of the project is the same answer we are getting eight years down the line.</p>
<p>Obviously, something is not right and the fact that they now want to refund our money is suspicious as they may now want to resell the stands since the money has lost value.</p></blockquote>

EcoCash finally integrates with CABS

<p>Addressing an<a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/Affirmative_Action_Group"> Affirmative Action Group</a> (AAG) conference in Harare last week, flamboyant businessman, <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/Philip_Chiyangwa">Philip Chiyangwa</a> revealed that CABS Bank wanted to sell his White House mansion after he failed to pay back a loan from the bank and had to borrow money from <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/CBZ_Holdings">CBZ bank</a> to pay off the debt. He went on to encourage other entrepreneurs not to use their houses as collateral but rather use movable assets such as cars.</p>
<p>Chiyangwa added that if a bank insists on using your house as collateral you should leave that loan and look elsewhere because that bank wants to destroy you. Said Chiyangwa:</p>
<blockquote><p>My White House mansion is very attractive and the bank desperately wanted it to go. CABS Bank is the one that loaned me money but I later on failed to pay the loan because I was defaulting buying furniture for the house. But I told them to go to hell and later got a loan from CBZ bank to pay off. From that day I changed ownership of the house to a Family Trust so that the bank won’t even touch it.</p></blockquote>
