I' I Judgment No. CCZ 14/2016114 Const. Application No. CCZ 67/13 the validity of which is not impugned commits a! criminal offence irrespective of his or her reasons for doing so. It is also of interest to note that whilst the applicant steadfastly refused to pay the tax in comforrnity with her social responsibility, she continued to watch television programmes on ZTV to be aware of the nature of the alleged bias in favour of ZANU-PF in the selection and presentation of the programmes by Z:SC. The conduct of the applicant in seeking to use court process to provide justification for criminal conduct in a case in which the constitutionality of the provisions of the law creating the offence is not impugned deserves censure by an order of costs. The application is dismissed with costs. ZIYAMBI JCC: I agree· GWAUNZAJCC: I agree GARWEJCC: I agree GOWORAJCC: I agree HLATSHWAYO JCC: I agree PATELJCC: I agree
