Tragedy rocked Mabvuku community in Harare after a woman allegedly stabbed her 43-year-old husband following accusations of infidelity.
When the ZBC News crew arrived at the scene of the crime, the body of the deceased, Duncan Chiwaya had just been taken by the police and relatives were left cleaning blood stains in the house.
A visibly distraught mother, Janet Dumbu, was at a loss for words after the death of her son Chiwaya.
“I knew nothing about their marital problems and I was only shocked to be called to see my son lying in a pool of blood, with my daughter-in-law beside the body,” she said.
A neighbour, Ellen Luundi, who was playing the role of an aunt in the couple’s marriage, confirmed the two had been having problems.
“They have been having problems. The wife accused Chiwaya of infidelity. Last week she had packed her bags with the intention of quitting the marriage and I helped them reconcile.
Then I woke up to see missed calls from the husband, and when I tried to call back it was too late, a child was at my door knocking to tell me about this tragic event,” she said.
The incident has left the neighbourhood shell-shocked.
“This is painful, why do people kill each other when they have problems in marriage?” a community member asked.
“It is better to walk out of a toxic marriage than killing each other, I am pained by the loss,” another community member said.
Chiwaya, who was employed by the Women’s University in Africa, has left behind a three-year-old child, whom he had with his wife.
As the community struggles to come to terms with the loss of life in such a manner, the case serves as a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of domestic violence and the importance of seeking help when relationships turn sour.
Police are yet to confirm the incident.
