Police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi
confirmed the incident saying investigations had begun to hunt down the
murderers, while also warning bars operating against Covid-19 regulations.
H-Metro spoke to Panashe Nhau, a disc jockey and cleaner at
the nightclub who said he went to the bar around 7am to perform his duties.
Nhau said he knocked at the bar’s window, but there was no
response, only to see Wundi sleeping in an awkward position.
“I went to the window and knocked without response. I then
realised that she was not responding and it was then that I saw her legs in an
awkward position, prompting me to dash home and ask for help from our
grandmother,” said Nhau.
He added: “What I saw was very terrifying and I notified
our grandmother about the incident. I then informed the owner of the nightclub.”
He said the club owners reacted swiftly and attended to the
scene. A young brother to the nightclub owner, Munyaradzi Kuyambwa, told
H-Metro that it seemed Wundi had recognised one of the robbers who went on to
stab her with a knife several times on the neck.
“Musikana uyu anenge akaziva munhu anga achida kuba. Vatora
mari yose maUS$ ndokumusiya vamucheka nechemuhuro,” said Kuyambwa.
A neighbour who refused to be identified, but attended the
funeral, said it was sad to note that Shelter had died in her prime age.
“She was a down-to-earth person. We have lost a dear
sister. It is really a great loss to the people of Banket. Munhu aitaurika
naye.
“I want to urge all business owners in Banket to beef up
security to prevent further loss of life,” said the neighbour. Wundi was buried
on Sunday at Banket Cemetery. Ass Comm Nyathi said the case was under police
investigation. H Metro
