A TILL supervisor with OK Supermarkets’ Chipinge branch is alleged to have stolen grocery worth $12 349 from his employer.
Vhukile Mlambo of the medium density area of Chipinge appeared before Mrs Elizabeth Hanzi facing theft charges this week.
He was not asked to plead and was remanded out of custody on his own cognisant to July 28 for trial.
Prosecuting, Mr Edmore Manhanganisa said on July 17, Mlambo, who was not on duty, went to OK Supermarket and stole the grocery.
“On July 17, Mlambo went to the supermarket as a customer. While inside, he took 31X2kgs Hullets brown sugar, three loaves of bread and only paid for the three loaves of bread and 1X2kg sugar,” said Mr Manhanganisa.
The offence was discovered through a CCTV footage, leading to his arrest and recovery of the stolen sugar.
