A Methodist church congregant based in Mutoko, Julius Danda, 81, lost his gun while attending a church service recently.
The matter emerged on Friday at the Mutoko Magistrates’ Courts where Danda appeared before magistrate Elijah Sibanda.
Danda pleaded guilty to failure to secure a firearm charge.
Sibanda slapped Danda with a US$150 fine, and failure to pay will earn him a month in jail.
Prosecutor, Nathan Majuru told the court that on May 6, Danda left his gun under the bed in his bedroom and went for a church service.
Upon his return, he could not locate his gun and went to file a police report where he was arrested.
Quizzed on why he did not keep the gun safe in a gun cabinet, he said he did not have knowledge about guns since he inherited the gun from his father.
