Charles Chirambwa only found out about his wife’s
extramarital affair when he was looking for his jersey in the wardrobe.
Ruth Chirimo lied that the phone belonged to her friend and
neighbour.
After being further quizzed, she later changed her stance
and told her husband it belonged to the man who promised her a job.
This matter came to light at the Harare Civil Court where
Ruth applied for a protection order against Charles.
She said she no longer loved Charles.
“Ever since he found the cellphone in the wardrobe, he has
been assaulting me and I had to run away from our matrimonial home.
“I no longer love him, I just want to be granted a
protection order for me to be able to go and collect my clothes and documents,”
said Ruth.
In defence, Charles said: “I still love my wife and I want
her to come back home and raise our children together despite her cheating on
me.
“I never assaulted her, she ran on her own after I found a
cellphone I never bought for her in the wardrobe. I never denied her access to
her clothes, she can come and take them if she insists on divorcing me.”
Magistrate Sharon Mashavire granted the protection order in
Ruth’s favour. H Metro
