A Bulawayo man, Desire Moyo, 28, has been brought before Bulawayo regional magistrate, Dambudzo Malunga, to answer to charges of assaulting his co-tenant, Tendai Govere, 22.
Moyo allegedly assaulted and violated Tendai after discovering him in his bedroom with his wife.
He was charged with two counts of assault and aggravated indecent assault, but he pleaded not guilty to both. Despite his plea, he was remanded in custody until Tuesday next week when his trial will commence.
Circumstances leading to the altercation are that Moyo’s wife, Patience Ncube, had been repeatedly calling Govere and inviting him over to her room. After some hesitation, he eventually agreed and visited her in the evening when he husband was not around. However, things quickly turned sour when Moyo unexpectedly returned and caught the two together in his bedroom.
Without hesitation, Moyo began assaulting Govere with a leather belt and his fists, causing him to bleed profusely. He went on to assault him, even removing his trousers and inserting a sex toy into his rear for two hours while recording a video of the brutality.
Fortunately, other co-tenants eventually came to Govere’s aid, phoning the Khumalo Police Station, which swiftly reacted and arrested the accused. Constance Mathaba represented the State.
