adminAppearing separately Sibonile Ncube (40), of 14295 Nkulumane 12 and Florence Siziba (42), of 15509 Nkulumane 12 pleaded guilty to allowing an unlicensed driver to drive a public vehicle.
Bulawayo magistrate Mr Richard Ramaboea, sitting at the Western Commonage magistrates’ courts, sentenced each of the women to three months in prison, which was wholly suspended on condition that they perform 105 hours of community service.
They were further prohibited from driving any public vehicle for three months.
Mr Tony Kamudyariwa told the court that sometime in January this year, on a date unknown to the prosecution, Siziba gave her kombi to Joseph Mudzingwa to use to carry passengers to the city.
Mudzingwa later left employment and got employed by Ncube.
On 25 February, after Siziba had tipped-off the police that Mudzingwa was unlicensed, he was arrested and he implicated the two women.
Mudzingwa pleaded guilty to two counts of driving a public motor vehicle without a licence and was jailed for 12 months.
