High Court judge, Justice Tawanda Chitapi, found Elmina
Kusikwenyu guilty of having an affair with Happygill Muyengwa’s husband, Roy
Dzinemarira, knowing fully well that he was married.
Muyengwa and Dzinemarira were legally married in 2013.
The court heard that Kusikwenyu and Dzinemarira’s affair
started in 2014 and one child was born out of the adulterous relationship.
She was also accused of maintaining the adulterous affair
despite being cautioned by Muyengwa.
As a result, Muyengwa said she lost the affection and
companionship of her husband to Kusikwenyu.
In his judgment, Justice Chitapi said: “Kusikwenyu is to
pay Muyengwa US$10 000 in local currency, using interbank rate prevailing on
the market on the date of payment, being damages for contumelia (humiliation).
“US$10 000, payable in local currency using interbank rate
prevailing on the market on the date of payment, for consortium.” H Metro
