Regional magistrate, Gloria Takundwa has sentenced a Seke man to 28 years in jail after convicting him of sodomizing his boy-scout learners during training.
Tinashe Hove Murira (35) of Marimbi Village, Chief Seke,
was facing 14 counts; five of aggravated indecent assault charges, six of Data
protection charges and three of indecent assault charges.
The accused person was sentenced to 3 years in prison for
count 1, 3, 6, 9, 13 and 14 and one year was suspended for 5 years on condition
to that the accused person does not commit similar offence within the period.
The incident happened in January 2023.
Circumstances are that sometime in January 2023 at
Chitsvatsva Village Chief Seke, Hove used his laptop to show a 14 year old
juvenile a pornographic video thereby contravening Chapter 11 of the Data
Protection Act.
Hove allegedly did the same to five other learners in his
class.
Some of the juveniles in his class came to his residence
for a training session. Hove told them to thoroughly wash their anuses before
retiring to bed.
He also ordered them to sleep in their underwear only. The
juveniles were sleeping on the floor and Hove grabbed one of them and sodomised
him. He did the same to four other juveniles on different occasions.
Sometime in April last year, Hove caressed a 12 year old
boy who had come for scout training and did the same to two other juveniles.
