Harare, in February.According to BBC,President Robert Mugabe's 31-year-old stepson told the court.
"I regret and want to apologise for the incident,"The magistrate said he had considered cancelling the accused's licence and sending him to jail but opted for a fine because of his remorse.
The Judge said that the fact that Goreraza was a first-time offender had also affected his decision. In other similar cases, at least two-year prison terms have been handed down.
