An Indian court on Wednesday, 21 February sentenced a 40-year-old Zimbabwean woman to 10 years of imprisonment for having 8.5kg of methamphetamine and heroin in 2022.
The special NDPS (Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances) Act court also imposed a fine of ₹2 lakh (US$200 000) on the accused Rosie Diamon.
As reported by the <a href="https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/mumbai-news/zimbabwean-woman-gets-10-years-in-jail-for-carrying-8-5kg-of-heroin-101708541481489.html">Hindustan Times</a>, Diamon was arrested on 13 February 2022, after the Air Intelligence Unit had received information the previous day, that a passenger would be arriving with narcotics substances.
Acting on the received information, unit officers kept a watch on the passengers. They recognised Diamon through her passport and noticed she was carrying a trolley bag and a handbag.
The officers checked her trolley bag and it was found that the files and folders in the bag contained 8.486 kg of yellowish-coloured powder granules and white crystals. In convicting Diamon, special judge AV Kharkar noted:
<blockquote>
On going through the evidence in its entirety, it precipitates that the accused was found in possession of a commercial quantity of contraband methamphetamine and heroin. The evidence of the prosecution witness is trustworthy and reliable.
</blockquote>
In her written argument, Diamon said her cousin was part of a gang from Zimbabwe and that he had lured her for money, handing over a bag which she was asked to carry to India, in which the contraband was found.
She pleaded for leniency saying she was unaware of the bag’s contents and belonged to a poor family with her children dependent on her.
The court noted that the accused had neither denied that the contraband was recovered from the bag nor that the bag from which the contraband was recovered was in her possession. The court said:
<blockquote>
Rather, in her written arguments, she has submitted that the bag was handed over to her by her cousin, who is involved with a gang.
In such a case the court will have to presume that the accused was carrying the contraband and that her possession was conscious.
</blockquote>
In April 2018, another Zimbabwean woman, Betty Rame (38), was arrested by a Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) team at the IGI Airport with two concealed bags full of a crystalline substance, which tested positive for Methamphetamine.
In August 2021, Rame was convicted and sentenced to 10 years of rigorous imprisonment with a ₹1 lakh fine under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act.
However, in June 2023, the Delhi High Court suspended the sentence, noting that there was an alleged non-compliance with the procedure for sampling the seized substance and that the accused had already undergone over four years in custody.
Justice Anish Dayal said the standing orders issued by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and the Ministry of Finance ought to be respected by investigating agencies.
Dayal said the lack of compliance with these standing orders imports an element of reasonable doubt, which would also impact the issue of proving the guilt of the accused.
Rame’s lawyers had argued that the NCB did not collect the sample as per norms.
They said the contraband was admittedly seized from two separate bags and that the bags were subsequently mixed.
The lawyers also contended that as per the standing order, the contents of the bags should not have been mixed to avoid the substance “losing its identity”.

Zimbabwean Woman Gets 10 Years In Jail In India For Carrying 8.5kg Of Heroin

The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has launched a two-week drug awareness campaign in secondary schools across Matabeleland South Province.
The campaign is aimed at fighting drug and substance abuse which has become prevalent in schools.
Statistics released by the Police indicate that cases of drug and substance abuse recorded in Matabeleland South province rose by 172 percent from January to April this year, compared to the same period last year.
From January to April 2022, 18 cases were recorded in the province, and 49 cases were recorded over the same period this year.
ZRP spokesperson in Matabeleland South Province, Inspector Loveness Mangena told the <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/police-launch-drug-abuse-campaign/">Chronicle</a> that Police will visit a number of schools during the two-week period. She said:
<blockquote>
We have started a two-week educative crime awareness campaign targeting drug and substance abuse where we are visiting various secondary schools and engaging learners.
We are also talking about other crimes but our main focus is drug and substance abuse. We want learners to say no to drugs in order to save their lives.
The problem of drug abuse is destroying the lives of many youngsters and in some cases, lives have been lost. It’s a pity that this problem is being recorded even in school.
We want learners to act responsibly and be able to say no to drug abuse and other crime.
Pupils should report any acts of drug abuse which they see and they must report drug peddlers so that we might bring this problem to an end.
Communities are also encouraged to report businesses that operate beer outlets outside the law by allowing under-aged patrons and operating outside stipulated times.
</blockquote>
Some of the drug abuse cases have been recorded in schools like Gwanda, Madlambuzi, and Usher High Schools.
Several assault cases leading to aggravated assault or murder are suspected to result from drug abuse.
Commonly used substances in Zimbabwe include glue, bronclee, mangemba, tumbwa, cane sprit, marijuana, codeine and crystal meth (guka, dombo, mutoriro).

Police Launch Drug Abuse Awareness Campaign In Secondary Schools

Harare model Tumelo Nare will spend more time behind bars after she was on Wednesday further remanded in custody to next month.
The police requested more time to finalise investigations into her drug case.
<a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/model-nare-to-spend-more-time-behind-bars/">H-Metro</a> reported that Nare, who is being charged together with Precious Bango, was remanded to 7 April.
The duo first appeared in court at the beginning of March but were denied bail on the basis that they are facing a serious offence.
The magistrate ruled that the two failed to give a reasonable defence making them unsuitable candidates for bail.
<h2>The Allegations</h2>
The court heard that Nare, Bango, and one Jason Leeroy Pamhidzai, who is at large, checked into a local hotel.
At around 6.30 PM on 5 February, the two women allegedly started behaving strangely strolling around the hotel naked.
Delegates attending a seminar at the hotel called the police who went and arrested the duo.
The police found cocaine, an illegal drug, in their hotel room.
In their bail application, the two told the court that Pamhidzai was the cocaine consumer and that Nare, who is epileptic, had seizures.
They claimed that Nare started bleeding from the nose and Bango ran around the corridors seeking for help.

On 03 February this year, the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) <a href="https://www.sundaymail.co.zw/police-declare-war-on-drug-dealers">launched a nationwide operation</a> dubbed “No to Dangerous Drugs and Illicit Substances: See Something, Say Something” to clamp down on drug cartels responsible for distributing illicit substances such as crystal methamphetamine, marijuana and illegal cough syrups.
Speaking on 20 February in Ethiopia during a wide-ranging interview with Zimbabwean journalists where he was attending an African Union summit, <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/president-speaks-on-drugs/">President Emmerson Mnangagwa said the government</a> will soon review the law on dangerous drugs. He said:
<blockquote>
As you may be aware, we have recently moved in on dealing with the question of drugs among the youth.
I have instructed the police that anybody found drunk anywhere must be picked up and arrested and tell us where he got the drugs.
We are asking all institutions in the country churches and schools where ever you find people dealing with drugs or young people using drugs they must be arrested and make sure we protect our young people from drugs.
We also think the parents must take responsibility if they are unable to control their children they must report to the police what is happening because that will save their children.
We are going to be harsh in dealing with this issue especially those that bring drugs into the country.
We may, down the line, look at the sentencing of drug peddlers and increase the sentence.

LIST: Centres Helping Drug Addicts Recover

The leader of the Diplomatic Intelligence Party (DIP) Ashley Zhou has claimed that dangerous drugs are being sold to young people in Bulawayo’s central business district and law enforcement agents are doing nothing to curb the vice.
Ndlovu said that the selling of dangerous drugs to the youth of Bulawayo is becoming a provincial security threat. He said:
<blockquote>
There are certain individuals who are operating along Sixth Avenue. The continued selling of dangerous drugs to the youth of Bulawayo is slowly becoming a provincial security threat.
Benylin with codeine is sold to schoolchildren. This is highly unacceptable and immoral because this medicine may lead to drowsiness and impaired concentration which may be aggravated by the simultaneous intake of alcohol or other central nervous system depressant agents.
Furthermore, exceeding the prescribed dose, together with prolonged and continuous use of this medication may lead to dependency and addiction.
The most heartbreaking thing is that law enforcement people turn a blind eye to such criminal activities.
The victims are our kith and kin. High school pupils and the youths. These illegal drug dealers are not pharmacies hence, cannot sell medication to people.
</blockquote>
Responding to the allegations raised by Zhou, ZRP spokesperson in Bulawayo Metropolitan Province, Inspector Nomalanga Msebele, said they had not received reports on drug peddling.
City of Bulawayo deputy mayor Mlandu Ncube also said he was not aware of the alleged activities. | <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/southerneye/local-news/article/200003535/opposition-leader-attacks-cops-over-drug-dealers">Southern Eye</a>
