Two Tanzanian men have been sentenced to 25 years in jail for illegally possessing 16 ostrich eggs, AFP news agency reports.
Matiko Marwa, 32, and Julius Marwa, 42, were convicted of “economic sabotage” by a court in Serengeti in northern Tanzania, where there is a famous game park, AFP reports.
The two men were caught with the eggs in December 2016. They said at the time that they planned to sell them in neighbouring Kenya where they would be used in a purported cure for Aids, according to AFP.
