A 19-YEAR-OLD man from Mangwe in Matabeleland South has been sentenced to two months in prison for stealing closed-circuit television (CCTv) cameras at Stockstown Farm.
The value of the cameras is US$400.
Lungisani Ndlovu appeared before Plumtree magistrate Joshua Nembaware on Monday facing a theft charge.
Nembaware suspended the sentence on condition that he restitutes the complainant, failure to which he will serve the sentence.
Prosecutor Selestine Madziwa told the court that on April 9 this year, Ndlovu went to Stockstown Farm and stole the cameras.
Investigations pointed to Ndlovu after farmers said he was acting suspiciously when he visited the property.
