Recently, a woman allegedly teamed up with her son and
killed her other child whom she accused of being violent, abusive and a drug
addict, then buried the body in a shallow grave at their Borrowdale home.
The alleged crime only came to light when the brother, who
allegedly pulled the trigger, started hallucinating after being involved in an
accident.
“Police are still investigating the suspected murder case
which occurred sometime in January 2021 in Borrowdale, where a man aged 32
allegedly murdered his brother aged 30,” said national police spokesperson
Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi.
“The suspect shot the victim with a firearm belonging to
the family and then concealed the offence by secretly burying the body in a shallow
grave within the yard.
The offence came to light after the suspect had been
involved in a road accident and confessed.
“Meanwhile, the body of the victim was exhumed and sent to
hospital for post-mortem with the firearm and shovel used in the crime being
recovered from a secret place.”
The matter is now being handled by detectives from the CID
Homicide Department.
Tracy Samantha Carr, believed to be an owner of Lewisam
Motors in Harare, allegedly teamed up with her son, Norman Tyron, and killed
her other son, Dylyn Michael Carr.
The two have since appeared at the Harare Magistrates Court
for initial remand on murder charges.
Prosecutor Mr Lancelot Mutsokoti alleged that in January
the two decided to kill Dylyn.
It is alleged that Samantha then gave Norman a pistol and
that he fired the fatal shot. The two then allegedly dug a shallow grave behind
the garage of their Borrowdale home and buried him.
The court heard that Samantha went on to hide the pistol at
Lewisan Motors. But then Norman was involved in an accident and admitted to
hospital, where he allegedly started hallucinating and revealing the murder in front
of hospital staff. Herald
