The co-accused workers went missing.

Mukashyaka was arrested on Wednesday at Gisenyi Rwanda Investigation Bureau (RIB), station.

The spokesperson of RIB, Modeste Mbabazi has said that investigation is underway to summon more workers involved in the misallocation of the funds.

β€œShe is detained over Rwf 192 missing in Rugerero Sacco branch. An investigation is on course to hold accountable more conspirators,” he said.

IGIHE has learned that Mukashyaka concealed theft committed by workers she supervised providing a false report to the National Bank of Rwanda.

In January 2019, residents went to withdraw their money from Sacco Rugerero and found no money on their accounts.

A cashier, Didier Mutuyeyezu, was immediately arrested and is currently detained in Gisenyi prison.

Following the issue, the National Bank of Rwanda conducted an audit establishing that Rwf 192 went missing.

When audit reports revealed the misappropriated money, some workers of the SACCO; Patrick Mugabo, Prudencienne Kanyamuneza and Tite Gakuba disappeared.
