An airport trespasser from Epworth was yesterday arraigned before Harare magistrate Mrs Ruth Moyo for allegedly trying to enter a VIP aircraft at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport.
He is facing charges of contravening the Civil Aviation Statutory Instrument “access to airside and restricted areas” or is alternatively charged for trespassing.
He was denied bail and remanded to June 30.
The State requested that Mubare be examined to find out if he is mentally stable, or at least fit enough to stand trial.
The State alleged that Mubare arrived at the RGM International Airport at around 3.55pm and tried to get into the airport yard.
He was denied entry by the police who were manning the entry point.
Later on the same day, Mubare sneaked into the Air Zimbabwe airport yard where entry or access is denied to the air side.
Alois Garai Ndoro an employee at the airport who was on duty on the day doing his routine work at a parked Fallon F7, designated a VIP flight, saw Mubare entering through the entry point to the plane.
Mubare was taken to Air Zimbabwe security where he was subsequently arrested.
