POLICE in Mutawatawa have arrested a 34-year-old Maramba
woman, who allegedly killed her husband following an altercation over their
child’s graduation fees.
Nomove Chaparadza (30), of Dzumbunu village under Chief
Chirinda, in Maramba died on the spot after he was allegedly hit by a stone on
the head by his first wife, Nancy Mhako, following a misunderstanding over
money.
Mashonaland East provincial police spokesperson Inspector
Tendai Mwanza confirmed the incident.
“Police are investigating the death of a Maramba man, who
died on the spot after he was allegedly hit with a stone on the head by one of
his wives,” he said.
According to the police, on November 17, at around 5pm,
Chaparadza was at home with his second wife, Angeline Kanyasa (29), when Mhako
asked him to accompany her to their matrimonial homestead in Mushambi village
since he had spent three weeks with his second wife.
Chaparadza complied. While on their way, Mhako reportedly
asked for money for their child’s graduation fees and food, but Chaparadza said
he did not have any, resulting in a physical fight.
Chaparadza fled from the scene, but Mhako gave chase and
hit him with a stone on the back of the head, killing him instantly.
Nearby villagers made a report at Mutawatawa Police
Station, leading to Mhako’s arrest. Newsday
