Two teachers at Gatshe-Gatshe Secondary School in Kariba were last week fined US$50 each after a Karoi magistrate convicted them of sitting last year's Ordinary Level examinations on behalf of external candidates.

Andrew Mugombedzi (27) and Blessed Gomana (22) pleaded guilty to fraud charges when they appeared before magistrate Mr Robson Finsin.

All the candidates involved recorded passes.

It is the State's case that Mugombedzi wrote the Bible Knowledge examination for one Trynos Rwauya during the 2011 Zimbabwe School Examinations Council (Zimsec) examination session.

He also supplied another candidate, Evans Tiki, with answers to the commerce examination.

On the other hand, Gomana wrote the Mathematics and English examinations on behalf of Margaret Marosa.

Zimsec only discovered the fraud after receiving a tip-off.

Mr Benjamin Negato prosecuted.
