SOUTH AFRICA: The South African Police Service (SAPS) in Gauteng has confirmed that high-flying Zimbabwean socialite, content creator, and entrepreneur Evans Sivechere, also known as Vecco Lupa, is wanted on at least three cases of fraud.

The South Africa-based migration consultant was arrested last month by the Botswana Police Service in Gaborone on another set of multiple fraud charges linked to an alleged international jobs scam.

Sivechere had landed in Botswana from South Africa when he was apprehended.

Sivechere operated Diamond Migration from both South Africa and Botswana, offering job placements and work-permit processing for countries including Hungary, Serbia, Ireland, and several others in Europe.

Many complainants say they paid large sums of money, only to later learn the documents they received were fake or that no applications had ever been submitted.

Following the highly publicised arrest in Botswana, several victims in South Africa contacted IOL, speaking out about how they also lost hard-earned money and opened cases with SAPS. The victims allege that members of SAPS seemed reluctant to arrest the accused serial fraudster.
