A SECURITY guard has been arrested for allegedly stabbing a
woman several times on her back accusing her of not honouring her promise to
have sex with him after paying her taxi fare.
Nqobizitha Ncube (30) allegedly stabbed Ms Sininisami Nyoni
(19) while she was breastfeeding her son.
Ncube was not asked to plead when he appeared before Gwanda
magistrate, Mrs Nomagugu Sibanda, facing an attempted murder charge. He was
remanded in custody to November 20 for trial.
Prosecuting, Miss Ethel Mahachi said Ncube met Ms Nyoni on
September 26 at around 3AM and he offered to pay her taxi fare in exchange for
sexual intercourse.
“On 26 September at around 3AM, Ncube and Ms Nyoni boarded
a taxi together from the CBD to their homes. Ncube agreed to pay Ms Nyoni’s
taxi fare and in exchange sexual intercourse with him and they proceeded to her
home,” said Miss Mahachi.
“Upon arrival at her home, Ms Nyoni disembarked from the
vehicle and went into her house leaving Ncube in the car. This didn’t go down
well will Ncube who followed Ms Nyoni into her house and found her
breastfeeding her son. Ncube became violent and accused Ms Nyoni of failing to
fulfil her promise. He stabbed her several times on the back and once on the
head using a knife and fled from the house.”
Miss Mahachi said Ms Nyoni was assisted by neighbours who
heard her screaming for help. She was ferried to Gwanda Provincial Hospital for
treatment. The matter was reported to the police resulting in Ncube’s arrest.
In another case, a Filabusi man has appeared in court for
allegedly assaulting his neighbour. Nicodemus Siziba (29) pleaded not guilty to
assault when he appeared before Gwanda magistrate, Mrs Nomagugu Sibanda.
He was remanded in custody to November 25 for trial.
Prosecuting, Mr Silent Shoko said Siziba attacked Okay
Shoko on September 11.
“On 11 September at around 11PM at Base 2 Umzingwane
Panning Site in West Nicholson, Okay was having a dispute with his wife in
their tent and she went out. Siziba got out of his tent and asked Okay what was
going on between him and his wife. Okay became furious and ordered Siziba to
stay out his family issues.
“Siziba then grabbed Okay by the belt and pushed him to the
ground. He kicked him several times and further picked up a stone and struck
Okay on the right jaw. Okay screamed for help and neighbours intervened and
restrained Siziba from further assaulting him,” he said. Chronicle
