A 38-YEAR-OLD Mazowe man is on the run after allegedly
killing his younger brother with logs and bricks after a misunderstanding over
sleeping arrangements.
Mashonaland Central provincial police spokesperson
Inspector Milton Mundembe said Shakemore Masimbi (38) killed his younger
brother Garikai (35) following an altercation at Usk Farm in Mazowe on Sunday.
“I can confirm a murder case that occurred in Mazowe on
Sunday night around 10pm, where the suspect is still at large after killing his
younger brother following a misunderstanding,” Mundembe said.
A witness, Anyway Gombo (41), told NewsDay that the
brothers had a misunderstanding on Sunday night and he finally heard sounds
before finding Garikai’s motionless body the following day.
“The brothers had a misunderstanding over a place to sleep
on Sunday night, as they normally did. I ignored them, but on that particular
night, I heard sounds as if objects were hitting each other three times. The
following morning, I went to check on the two brothers and upon entering the
room, I found a dead body. I told their father Murambiwa, who then filed a police
report,” Gombo said. Newsday
