RBZ governor John Mangudya has announced revealing 16 categories of illegally expatriated forex:
Illegally Expatriated Foreign Exchange and Assets
Illegally expatriated foreign exchange and assets should be declared to the Bank or the affected person’s bankers on “a no questions asked” basis.
An application for amnesty should be filed with the Bank or through the affected person’s bankers and such application will be treated with confidentiality. The Application form is obtainable upon request from the Bank’s Exchange Control Department or any authorised dealer.

(d) Undervaluation of exports and overvaluation of imports and retention of the funds offshore;
(e) Trade misinvoicing by importers to evade customs duties, VAT, or income taxes;
(f) Non-return of temporary exports and disguised exports of samples;

Come on Zanu Psycpathic Front – what about all the money you guys have stolen over the last 38 years? Gideon Gonzo with the printing press now the new RBZ Guv with another shot at the printing press. How about Made and all the stuff he stole from Kondozi? What about all the equipment and residential houses you all stole under the guise of land reform? Let’s go back to the very beginning – what about the farms that you stole from the people of ZAPU? What about all the lives and livelihoods that you stole in Matabeleland? Why are you psychopaths so worried about the money but not the people that you murdered and their families? Why? How much did Mpofu and Madzongwe steal in the FTLRP?
Greed.
