Kelly Mupani
and Steven Kambeva ended their relationship recently after an undisclosed
misunderstanding.
Kelly told
Harare Civil Court magistrate Meenal Narotam that Steven’s threats have caused
her significant emotional abuse.
She said Steven
has also threatened to commit suicide if she goes ahead with her plans to marry
another man.
“He is failing
to accept that things ended between us and he is disturbing me by coming to my
new place of residence threatening to kill our child because he found out that
I am planning on getting married again.
“It’s been
almost a month now since we separated and he has been showing up at my house
unannounced to insult me.
“He says he
will stab our child with a knife and commit suicide afterwards,” Kelly told the
court.
She added: “I
am living in fear as each day passes because I do not know what he might do to
our child.
“I want the
court’s protection so that he does not come near me, contact me or make threats
in my face, “ she said.
In his defence,
Steven denied the allegations saying he was not suicidal.
“She is lying
before the court, I have never threatened her in any way or to kill our child.
“I have no
issues with the court granting her the protection order,” he said
In her ruling,
magistrate Naratom ordered Steven not to visit his ex-wife’s place of
residence, to stop insulting her and threatening her in any way. Herald
