A 40-year-old man has been arrested on allegations of killing his neighbour after accusing him of frequently visiting his homestead, as murder cases emanating from petty issues continue to increase countrywide.

The 41-year-old victim died six days after being admitted at Parirenyatwa Hospital following the brutal assault.

National police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed the incident.

“The ZRP is investigating a case of murder which occurred at Chirandure Village, Mukumbura on January 19, 2022, where Moses Mangezi aged 40 fatally assaulted his neighbour, a man aged 41 after a misunderstanding over frequent visits, by the victim, to the suspect’s residence.
