Motorists fined for violating curfew

Two motorists who violated the current lockdown curfew were slapped with a $20 000 fine by Guruve magistrate Geraldine Mutsotso on Friday.

The duo Eshinenge Chimururi (27) and Tinashe Makuwa pleaded guilty to the charges.

Prosecutor Albert Charewa told the court that on January 23 around 2 am  Chimururi was intercepted by the police at the 52-kilometre peg along Mvurwi-Kanyemba highway and he failed to give a satisfactory answer leading to his arrest.

The same day Makuwa was arrested after committing a similar offence on the same roadblock and the two were dragged to court.
