Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 52052, member: 636"] A Bulawayo commuter omnibus operator faced negligent driving charges after striking a pedestrian during evening hours on Khami Road. Derek Mloyi appeared before Western Commonage Magistrate Archie Wochiwunga following the March 27 incident that left Dumisani Ncube hospitalized. The 29-year-old Nkulumane resident allegedly failed to maintain proper vigilance while operating his Toyota Hiace vehicle. Prosecutor Audrey Kufandikanwe stated that excessive speed contributed to the collision that occurred around 7:40 pm. Medical personnel at Mpilo Central Hospital treated Ncube for severe injuries sustained during the accident. Defense arguments centered on Mloyi's claim that he attempted evasive maneuvers when encountering oncoming traffic. The driver maintained that the pedestrian occupied his travel lane when the collision occurred. Court proceedings continue on July 23 as magistrates examine evidence regarding the circumstances surrounding the incident. Authorities determined that Mloyi operated the vehicle without proper licensing documentation. The case highlights ongoing concerns about public transportation safety standards within the city. Separate criminal proceedings involved Jordan Ncube, who allegedly burglarized an Entumbane residence with an unidentified accomplice. The 31-year-old Njube resident forced entry into Isabel Moyo's home on June 18, removing electronic equipment worth considerable value. Stolen items comprised a 43-inch Luxuco plasma television and an OpenView decoder that the perpetrators advertised through social media platforms. Wellington Mthunzi purchased the television for 130 dollars after responding to a WhatsApp advertisement. Police recovered the television but continue searching for the missing decoder and accomplice Mncedisi. [/QUOTE]
