Harare Residents Trust has said the police have no right to fine motorists a $100 un realistic amount.
"The Zimbabwe republic police have no right to fine the unrealistic proposed $100 fine to motorists," said the trust. "Motorists who have been fined the amount can successfully mount a court challenge against the police because the national budget noted in the finance act did not contain tariffs fines."
Professor Lovemore Madhuku said "Please note that it is a fact that no legislative steps have been taken to make the fine legal section 3 of our constitution prohibits the exercise of power without legal base."
