Man charged for questioning Mugabe's abilities

Richmore Mashina Jazi, a self employed carpenter is in trouble with the law after he questioned President Mugabe's ability to blow up his birthday balloons given his advanced age and reported ill-health.

Jazi was watching live coverage of President Mugabe's birthday bash last Friday while drinking with friends when he allegedly suggested the President had sought help to blow up the balloons.

Jazi appeared in court on Monday facing charges of undermining the authority of the president and is now out on $20 bail.

He will be back at the court on March 12
