A MAN from Gokwe beat his best friend’s girlfriend to death
after he found her in a compromising position with another man.
George Ndebele (29) of Kufazvinei Village under Chief Jiri
in Gokwe South allegedly struck Prisca Moyo with an empty beer bottle when he
found her in the arms of another man, whose name was not mentioned in court.
He allegedly teamed up with unnamed accomplices who used an
assortment of weapons to beat Moyo. Ndebele allegedly strangled her until she
died.
For the offence, Ndebele was arraigned before Gokwe
magistrate Mr Musaiona Shortgame facing murder charges.
He was remanded in custody to March 23 and was advised to
apply for bail at the High Court.
The prosecutor, Mr Liberty Chimwaradze, said on February 28
this year, around 3AM, Ndebele was in company of two other men who are still on
the run while drinking beer at a bar at Mafungautsi stands near the Gokwe-Kwekwe
Highway.
The accused, the court heard, and his two accomplices saw
Moyo in the company of another man and connived to assault her, accusing her of
cheating on their friend.
“Armed with an empty beer bottle and some unknown weapons,
the accused persons struck the now deceased on the head with a bottle resulting
in her falling on the ground,” Chimwaradze told the court. Ndebele, the court
heard, together with his accomplices took turns to assault Moyo and Ndebele
strangled her. Chronicle
