From Zimbabwe-
AN Anglican priest allegedly sold his dead mother’s house and pocketed the money, leaving his siblings homeless.
David Dhlomo (52), a priest at St Martin’s Parish in Hatfield, allegedly sold the house in the same suburb in December 2008 without his brothers and sisters knowledge.
It is said his siblings were supposed to also benefit from the estate and Dhlomo is facing fraud charges before a Harare magistrate.
His trial opened this week before regional magistrate, Mr William Bhila, after the priest’s sister Zondiwe Dhlomo sought legal recourse.Prosecutor Ms Tinashe Kanyemba said the priest was one of the 10 children born to Ms Njini Sizi who died in 2002.
She left behind six children: the priest, the complainant Zondiwe, Rebecca, Richard and Jonathan Dhlomo, and Livingstone Mutimukulu.
The State says in 1999 Ms Sizi gave the deed of grant of the house to Zondiwe so that she could safeguard it in the event of her death.
