Nedgroup’s investment broker arrested for alleged fraud and theft of R1.7 million

GAUTENG – Zama Precious Ngubane (39) appeared in the Tsakane Magistrates Court facing charges of fraud and theft yesterday.

It is alleged that in April last year, three clients had a consultation at a Nedbank branch in Tsakane to invest an amount of R1.7 million collectively.  During the consultation, clients were allegedly referred to a private investment broker, Ngubane who is the Director at Ezamankomo (PTY) Ltd.

Ngubane allegedly promised guaranteed lucrative dividends the potential investors will receive for the five year investment plan at her company.
