Jestina Gwandongwe alleged the plan of the stepson Caspel
Svinurai (45) was to exclude her two children from their father’s estate.
The matter is before Magistrate Vimbai Mutukwa.
Svinurai denies ever making the application. He however,
also denied in court that his father was married to Gwandongwe. He says his
father Matthew John Svinurai told him that Gwandongwe left to remarry another
man.
Gwandongwe filed a Police report after she was asked to
come and collect the death certificate from the offices of the registrar in
Chiredzi.
She got concerned when she realised that her husband’s
death certificate gave his marital status as a widower.
The State said that on October 17, 2023, Svinurai went to
the Registrar’s offices and applied for the death certificate of his father and
gave wrong information stating that his late father was not married and his
wife was no more.
