*Zimbabwe Expels COVID-19 Positive Zambian Poacher* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?wz Zimbabwe has deported nine Zambian fishermen who were arrested for illegal fishing on the Zimbabwean side of Lake Kariba after one of them reportedly tested positive to COVID-19. The development was confirmed by Siavonga District Commissioner (DC) Lovemore Kanyama, who said that the nine fishermen who were arrested on Monday night and taken to Kariba town have been quarantined in Siavonga after being deported. ---------- itel A70 256GB $99USD WhatsApp: https://wa.me/+263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 ---------- Kanyama said the fishermen were supposed to be sentenced and imprisoned in Zimbabwe after being subjected to the COVID-19 test. After one of them tested positive for coronavirus, Zimbabwean authorities decided to deport them rather than give them a custodial sentence. Kanyama disclosed that the district has also carried out its independent test on all the nine fishermen who are now being quarantined at the Council lodge to verify the allegations of COVID-19, with the results for the quarantined fishermen expected to be out on Thursday or Friday. Zambia has registered over 1 000 coronavirus cases, with two cabinet ministers among the cases while Zimbabwe “only” has 132 cases, most of them being returnees from South Africa and Botswana. *More: Lusaka Times* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
