A Harare woman was yesterday granted a protection order against her ex-husband whom she accused of harassment and physical assault whenever they meet.
Auxilia Tombe sued James Bere at the Harare Civil Court.
The matter was before Ms Tamara Chibindi who ordered Bere
in absentia not to threaten, insult or physically harm Tombe.
Tombe explained to the court how she was being tormented by
her ex-husband.
“He beats me whenever he sees me and he also sends me
messages threatening to kill me. I don’t feel safe whenever I am walking
because I know I can be assaulted anytime,” she said.
The court heard Bere’s claims that she is trying to
destabilise his new marriage by regularly sending their child to his house.
“Whenever our child is sent away from school for
non-payment of fees, I send the child to his house to get the money. He does
not like it because he says his new wife must not know that he has a child and
was married before,” said Tombe. Herald
