Bus conductor jailed for bedding minor

A 19-year-old Chitungwiza commuter omnibus conductor was yesterday slapped with a 12-month jail term for bedding a 14-year-old girl.

Trust Mushori of 11255 Zengeza 4 in Seke will, however, not spend the whole year in prison after provincial magistrate Lazarus Murendo suspended four months on condition he does not within a five-year period commit a similar offence.

Prosecutor Norman Koropi told the court that on October 20 this year, the teenage girl went to Mushori’s place of residence following a misunderstanding with her parents.
