The incident occurred at Wakefield Lodges in Chicago Kwekwe on November 24, 2022 at 1900 hours.
It is reported that on the day mentioned above, the complainant Josephine Shekede an employee was on duty at her work place as a waitress when the two accused persons approached her pretending to be clients who needed overnight accommodation.
As the complainant was attending to the suspects, one of them pulled out an unidentified object from his waist threatening the complainant.
He then demanded money and all her valuables.
Shekede went to her room and took cash amounting to US$ 115, a G-tel Infinity cell phone, an Itel cell phone and handed them to the accused persons.
The accused persons further took a Wi-Fi router and remote control from the unmanned guard room before fleeing the scene.
