A 50-year-old man from Tivhule village in Binga was on Wednesday slapped with an 18-month jail term for unlawful possession of 1kg unprocessed dagga.
Mtshumayeli Sibanda was convicted on his own plea at the Lupane Magistrates’ Court following his arrest on July 6, 2025.
The detectives received a tip-off that Sibanda was in possession of dangerous drugs near Ndlovu Primary School and recovered the dagga from a plastic bag in his possession.
The court suspended six months from his sentence on the condition of good behavior.
