Airspace rules in the southern African country have been tightened - and witches who fly above 150 metres face a R500,000 (£35,487) penalty.
Sabelo Dlamini, an official at the Swazi civil aviation authority said:
“A witch on a broomstick should not fly above the [150 metre] limit."
No charges are planned for airborne witches who keep below the 150-metre 'ceiling'.
Witchcraft is taken seriously in Swaziland where many people believe in the power of black magic.

Fair enough that excess of prevision, if people think that is a real danger.

Furthermore, we believe that these things do not happen, until they happen.laugh

Everybody sees witches everyday. They only use their broomsticks in secrecy.

There's been much discussion at Hogwarts about this, the general consensus is that witches can choose to travel at speed above the height limit in order to evade identification and enforcement, Problem solved.

On a brighter note, the much anticipated launch of the new Nimbus 2014 broomstick is due to be announced next week creating an excited buzz in the Witch and Wizarding worlds so it looks like we'll be in for more chaos down in Diagon Alley again when it finally goes on sale.
