IT’S the kind of thing that people think only happens in movies!
But for a Bulawayo man movies depict reality as his
mother-in-law couldn’t control her taboo sexual urges enough to resist telling
him that she wanted a taste of his bedroom skills.
Manfield Nhemachena shockingly claimed he was left
disconcerted by his estranged wife’s, Tariro Nhemachena, biological mother when
she stormed into his bedroom and allegedly demanded to have sex with him.
Manfield decided to share the hard-to-believe request in
court, where his estranged wife was seeking a protection order against him
after years of alleged emotional and physical abuse.
“On 17 November my estranged husband Manfield Nhemachena
came to my house to drop off the child. We are on separation pending divorce
and according to a court order he is supposed to leave the child by the gate,
but on this particular day when I sent my child-minder to collect him (her
son), he refused to give her saying he wanted me to come there personally.
“As I was about to go, I was shocked when I saw him already
inside the house with the child. He went straight to disconnect the Television
set saying he has a right over it since our divorce has not yet been finalised.
“From the lounge he stormed into my bedroom and took my
laptop which he bought for me when we were still staying together. When I tried
to stop him, he violently pushed me against the wall. He grabbed me by the
throat and strangled me,” recounted Tariro.
In self-defence, Tariro revealed that she also aggressively
grabbed him by his shirt, causing the buttons to fall off.
“I started screaming and he rushed out of the house with
the laptop and I followed him as I wanted the laptop which has personal
information. Outside the house, he grabbed me by the neck and tackled me. I
fell headlong to the ground and neighbours later came to my rescue after I
screamed. For a moment, I blacked out and when I woke up, that is when I
discovered that I had sustained injuries all over my body,” further narrated Tariro.
A scorned Manfield, however, hit back accusing his
estranged wife’s mother of being a sex pest.
“She is always after fixing me by fabricating stories. She
once claimed that I wanted to stab our child with a kitchen knife. As if that
is not enough, she also reported me to Justice for Children claiming I had
kidnapped the child.
“For the past four years she would not allow me to see the
child. She and her mother were controlling me to the extent that her mother
once entered my bedroom and wanted to be intimate with me. The whole family is
aware of the incident and it is the one that also led me to walk out of the
marriage,” claimed a livid Manfield.
With regards to the TV set, he said: “I asked her to give
me one since she had two sets so that when the child comes to where I am now
staying, he could also have access to TV. She refused and I forcibly took it.
Turning to the issue of laptop, she lied to me that it was stolen. When I
wanted to collect it that is when she screamed”.
Taririo however, refuted Manfield’s submissions before
labelling him a “serial liar”.
“He is a liar. He abused me for years. He once assaulted me
and I was admitted in hospital for two-and-a-half weeks. He is such an
embarrassment, on the divorce summons he even demands that the table flowers
and teaspoons should be shared equally,” retaliated Tariro.
In her ruling the presiding magistrate Adelaide Mbeure
granted a reciprocal order which compels both parties to stay away from each
other’s premises.
She also stopped unreasonable disposal of matrimonial
property before the parties’ divorce is finalised. The magistrate further
ordered Manfield not to physically abuse or threaten his estranged wife. B
