I heard it on some FM radio station as I drove in my little village, and I did not believe it. Over time I have become so jaded by all the idiocies I hear broadcast by these radio stations that I suspect I have started building a self-defence mechanism to protect me from raving madness.
Only this was true, as I got to confirm the news hardly half an hour later. Yes, a magistrate at a low level of the judiciary had indeed sentenced some poor unfortunate devil to a sentence of seven years in prison and a fine of Tsh15,000,000 (read fifteen million Tanzanian shillings, and divide that by 2,300 to get your measure in the greenback).
