State mulls electronic fines payment system to curb graft

PLANS to curb corruption within the Zimbabwe Republic Police traffic section are underway with a system being developed to ensure people charged for road offences pay electronically.

This was said by Finance minister Patrick Chinamasa while addressing Senate last week during debate on the Finance Bill to do with the 2016 National Budget.

Chinamasa was responding to concerns by Bulawayo Metropolitan Senator Tholakele Khumalo over corruption at roadblocks.
