In March, a Victoria Falls-based company, Zambezi Boutique Private Limited was ordered to pay a US$500 fine by a Victoria Falls Magistrate for using Starlink internet services. The company was charged with contravening the Postal and Telecommunications Act Chapter 12:05 i.e. “possession, control or operate a radio station without a radio station license.” In February, a Chinese mining company operating in Mashonaland Central Province was fined US$700 for using Starlink.
