Resumen: Un hombre fue encarcelado por falsificar resultados para obtener un lugar en la Universidad Estatal de Midlands

Tawanda Fohlo, 21, faced fraud charges when he appeared before magistrate Tayengwa Chibanda.

He was sentenced to six months in prison but the court suspended four months on conditions.

Fohlo, who kept shaking his head in disbelief after the sentence, had pleaded with magistrate to spare him jail saying he did not know that his actions constituted a serious offence.

«Your worship please spare me jail. I did not know that what I did constituted a serious offence,» said Fohlo.

Prosecutors told the court that on March 8, Fohlo went to MSU and tendered a fake Advanced Level result slip to Ignatius Njini who works in the institution’s records and archives department.

Njini however, noticed that the results slip was fake and alerted authorities at the MSU who in turn made a police report leading to Fohlo’s arrest.
