Acting Amenities head Lisben Chipfunde was quoted as saying:
This is a special operation that we were not conducting about anti-littering which is so rampant throughout the city.
The Environmental Management Committee resolved that we should start to enforce the statutory Instrument 30 of 2016 which is an anti-litter by-law.
The By-Law states that if any individual is caught throwing litter everywhere is required to pay a fine.
He added that industries or companies also caught on the wrong side of the law shall all pay fines.
Fines for domestic waste from a standard-size receptacle/cart is US$36, while for domestic waste from a vehicle, one is supposed to pay US$113.
The fine for industrial all commercial waste dumping is US$385 or paid on the prevailing bank rate.
Chipfunde said termini targeted are Speke Avenue (Copa Cabana), Market Square, Charge Office and Simon Vengesai Muzenda (Fourth Street).
