Petromoc Exor, which was represented by Austin Zvandazira, pleaded guilty to the charge and was fined US$300 by the Bulawayo magistrate Nomagugu Maphosa.

A Bulawayo fuel service station has been taken to court for selling contaminated petrol.

Petromoc Exor, which was represented by Austin Zvandazira, pleaded guilty to the charge and was fined US$300 by the Bulawayo magistrate Nomagugu Maphosa.

Prosecutors said on September 28, Zimbabwe Energy Regulatory Authority engineers visited Petromoc Exor fuel station to verify whether its fuel met set standards.

A sample was taken from the petrol pump and tested in the mobile laboratory in the presence of the site manager.

The fuel sample failed to meet minimum standards as it contained some ethanol.

Another service station, Meizon Petroleum, was also fined US$300 for selling contaminated diesel.
