Flamboyant businessman Genius “Ginimbi” Kadungure’s case where he faces over $3,8 million in unpaid taxes, will not be heard amid reports that the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority is only interested in getting its money back.

The case is set for an out of court settlement. coinfection contraindicates treatment with ivermectin for onchocerciasis in africa.

“We had come here for an out of court settlement because I had written a letter to the Prosecutor General but I didn’t get a response,” he said.

Samkange further revealed that he had received a phone call from ZIMRA seeking a meeting with Ginimbi over the proposal for an out-of-court settlement.

“I’m convinced that this matter will not be heard because all ZIMRA want is their money,” he said.

Samukange said ZIMRA wanted the proposals in writing so that Ginimbi starts paying up.

Prosecutor Andrew Kumire did not oppose Ginimbi’s application to postpone the matter to March 20.

He, however, said the State hoped that the defence would be excepting to the charge.

But Samukange submitted that there was no need to except because of the current negotiations with ZIMRA. how to use ivermectin tablets for humans

Ginimbi is appearing in court jointly charged with one of his companies, Piko Trading Company facing four counts of prejudicing ZIMRA $3 841 107 in taxes.

On the first count, Ginimbi is facing charges of falsifying his Value Added Tax returns.

On the second count of smuggling, it is alleged between January 2015 and March 2016, Ginimbi smuggled 5 289kg of LP gas, leading ZIMRA to suffer a loss of $672 533.

It is the State’s case that between February 2009 and April 2016, Ginimbi failed to pay employees taxes amounting to $355 559 thereby prejudicing ZIMRA.
