Jonathan Mabhena of Lower Colliery accused his ex-wife, Ms
Gertrude Ngwenya of bewitching him resulting in him suffering from erectile
dysfunction.
Last month Mabhena armed himself with a home-made knife
which he allegedly used to fatally stab Ms Ngwenya.
Mabhena was not asked to plead to murder when he appeared
before Hwange magistrate Ms Aeiline Munamati yesterday.
He was remanded in custody and advised to apply for bail at
the High Court.
Prosecuting, Ms Kudzanai Mudzamiri said the accused armed
himself with a kitchen knife and went to the deceased’s home where he attacked
her.
“On 8 February at 10AM the accused went to the deceased’s
place of residence at Number 4 and knocked on the door. The now deceased and
her boyfriend came out and the accused took her to a nearby bush where a
misunderstanding ensued,” said Ms Mudzamiri.
The court was told that Mabhena accused Ms Ngwenya of
bewitching him resulting in him suffering erectile dysfunction.
Mabhena allegedly stabbed the now deceased several times
with a kitchen knife on the chest, neck, arm and abdomen.
She died on the spot. A report was made to the police
leading to the arrest of Mabhena. Chronicle
