Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>A user of Tik Tok, a popular short video sharing platform, has been ordered to pay ZW$3 000 after posting a clip in which a uniformed Chinhoyi police officer on duty, is jeered while hoisted in the air.<\/p>\n

David Kanduna (23), who starred in the ZBC TV drama series Kuchina The Genesis and other local productions, was fined following his conviction on cyberbullying charges.<\/p>\n

He becomes the first to be convicted under the newly-promulgated Data Protection Act.<\/p>\n

NewZimbabwe.com reports that the actor will serve 20 days in prison if he fails to deposit the fine with the clerk of court.<\/p>\n

The complainant was the state, represented by Constable Taimu of the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) Chemagamba, Chinhoyi.<\/p>\n

The court heard that on May 14, 2022, at Chinhoyi University of Technology (CUT) grounds, the complainant, who is a police officer, was deployed at the university grounds to provide security during a soccer match.<\/p>\n

There were quarrels on the pitchside, which led to Taimu being mocked and jeered before one of the marauders lifted him and ran while hoisting him in the air.<\/p>\n

Kanduna recorded a video and posted it onto a local WhatsApp group, without the complainant\u2019s consent.<\/p>\n

The video was further posted on Tik Tok and went viral, prompting Taimu to report the matter to the police.<\/p>\n

Kaduna was subsequently arrested and charged with cyberbullying \u201cwith intent to coerce, intimidate, harass, threaten, bully or cause substantial emotional distress, degrade or demean a person.\u201d<\/p>\n
