*Police no longer charging people with drunken driving, last had breathalysers in 2010* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?rt The Zimbabwe Republic Police is reported to be operating without breathalyser kits for more than 6 years now. The police last had the breathalyser kits in 2010, and this has resulted in the police being unable to charge drunken drivers. Suspected drunk drivers have been able to successfully beat the charges as the police would have no proof that they were drunk in court. ---------- Pindula is best experienced with the Android App. *Download APK here:* https://zero.pindula.co.zw/media/apps/apks/pindula23.apk _On Econet, Pindula does NOT use your data_ ---------- A traffic police officer who spoke to the Chronicle said: > We last had breathalysers around 2010. The truth is we have since stopped charging people with drunken driving because they can successfully deny the charge in court,” said a traffic police officer. > Without proof of a breath or blood test, our case is weak. We have to pray the culprit pleads guilty. When asked for comment, National Police spokesperson Senior Assistant Commissioner Charity Charamba said: > I do not know anything about that. I’m busy, I’m in a meeting Traffic Safety Council of Zimbabwe (TSCZ) spokesperson Mr Tatenda Chinoda Udhege said: > Unfortunately it’s a perish and repent situation as we do not deal with suspicions. We don’t have breathalysers to test people for alcohol and prove that they were indeed driving under its influence More: Chronicle itel A50 now available on Pindula at $84 64GB storage, 2GB RAM. _ideal for light usage_ _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
