The Citizens for Coalition Change senior member Job Sikhala who communicated falsehoods on X (formerly Twitter) has been fined US$500.

Harare regional magistrate Mrs Feresi also gave Sikhala a nine-month wholly suspended sentence on the condition he does not commit a similar offence in the next five years.

Sikhala tweeted that a junior police officer killed a baby with a baton stick in 2021.
