A police officer is on the run after his wife reported him for allegedly raping their 17-year-old housemaid last week.
As reported by <a href="https://www.zimlive.com/bulawayo-police-hunt-one-of-their-own-after-maid-raped/">ZimLive</a>, Assistant Inspector Farai Mashavira, from Nkata 9 in Bulawayo, is accused of attacking the teenager on September 12.
The incident was reported to Tshabalala police two days later by Mashavira’s wife, who took the alleged victim to file a report.
The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was alone at the house when Mashavira allegedly returned from work around 1 PM, initially in his police uniform.
According to a police memo, Mashavira asked the complainant to prepare food and then changed into civilian clothes.
While the teenager was washing dishes in the kitchen, Mashavira allegedly approached her from behind, grabbed her around the waist, and covered her mouth when she tried to scream.
He then dragged her to the living room and allegedly raped her on the sofa.
After the assault, Mashavira reportedly changed back into his uniform and left the house.
The teenager called her aunt in Mberengwa at around 5 PM the same day to recount her ordeal.
The aunt then informed Mashavira’s wife, who led the teenager to Tshabalala Police on September 14 to file a report.
Mashavira is currently being sought by police on rape charges.

The officer allegedly attacked the teenager when she was alone at home. He forced her, covered her mouth, and assaulted her on the couch. The teenager called her aunt to report the assault.

Police Officer Wanted For Alleged Rape Of 17-Year-Old Housemaid

Two police officers are among five suspects who recently appeared in court on murder charges after they allegedly used electric cables and open hands in repeated attacks on a woman from whom they were trying to coerce a confession for the alleged theft of US$100.
The victim, Ruvimbo Kamugwala, later died as the three other suspects were about to take her to a prophet.
The suspects named in the court documents are Gerald Mupandawana Makore (38), Nicola Kadonzvo (28), Judith Mangando (45), Tafadzwa Gerald Madzima (22), and Tavonga Munoda (21). They were arraigned before the Norton Magistrates’ Court on murder charges.
According to a statement from the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), the incident occurred on July 17, 2024, at Plot 26 in Parl, Selous.
Kamugwala had been tasked to clean the house of the second accused person, who later discovered that $100 was missing.
The second accused person then teamed up with the first and third accused persons and began interrogating Kamugwala, assaulting her with switches, electric cables, and open hands.
The first and second accused persons then went to the local police base, where they met the fourth and fifth accused persons, who are police officers.
The fourth and fifth accused persons proceeded to assault the now-handcuffed Kamugwala with a baton stick.
While in custody, Kamugwala admitted to stealing the money and claimed to have given it to a friend, who denied the allegations.
She later stated that she had hidden the money at home, but a search yielded no results. The fourth and fifth accused persons further assaulted Kamugwala before leaving her in the custody of the first, second, and third accused persons.
Kamugwala died the following morning as the first and second accused persons were attempting to take her to consult a prophet.
The accused persons were remanded in custody until August 1, 2024, and were advised to apply for bail at the High Court.

Two Cops Among Five People Facing Murder Charge After Fatally Assaulting Housemaid

A woman from Gokwe rural who was employed as a domestic worker in Bulawayo was among the 201 students who graduated with teaching diplomas from the privately run Blended Education College of Southern Africa (BECSA) on Thursday last week in Bulawayo.
The college is an affiliate of the University of Zimbabwe.
Trinity Mawana (pictured) relocated to Bulawayo from rural Gokwe to work as a housemaid after passing one subject at Ordinary Level.
Speaking to <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/maid-acquires-teaching-diploma/">State media</a>, Mawana said she was fortunate enough to have an employer who encouraged her to further her studies.
She revealed that she supplemented until she passed six subjects at Ordinary Level which enabled her to study for a course in teaching. Said Mawana:
<blockquote>
When I came to Bulawayo in 2013, I got a job and my employers urged me to pursue my studies.
I had passed one subject at O-Level and following encouragement from my employer, I decided to do private lessons.
I wrote O-Level and passed six subjects. I recall one day while walking in town on my way to collect my employer’s child from school, I came across a new college that had just been established.
My employer encouraged me to apply and I did exactly that and was accepted to study teaching.
While I brought my employer’s child, in between, I would do my school work.
</blockquote>
Mawana said it was difficult to work as a housemaid while going to school at the same time.
She said at some stage, she contemplated quitting her studies as she struggled to raise the fees and had to sell tomatoes during weekends to supplement her income. Said Mawana:
<blockquote>
At some point, I wanted to give up, but my mother, lecturers, colleagues, and friends gave me words of encouragement…
When I tell my friends out there that I was a maid some can’t believe it. So as a word of encouragement to others in the same predicament, I say, “Don’t give up”.
</blockquote>
Mawana, who is presently working as a conductor, said she is looking for a teaching job as it has always been her dream to be a teacher.

Housemaid Buries Newly Born Baby Alive

A Filabusi couple allegedly chained up, tortured their maid (19) and poured boiling water on her genitals for allegedly stealing US$200.
On 31 January 2022, Thembelani Moyo (28) and Sibongile Mpofu (28) who stay at Vukuzenzele village in Filabusi and work at Senga Hill Mill Mine discovered that US$200 which they had kept in their wardrobe was missing.
The two allegedly assaulted their housemaid- who cannot be named for ethical reasons- but she denied seeing the money, let alone stealing it.
However, after she had been savagely beaten up, the maid confessed that she had stolen the money and had already spent US$169 and was left with US$31.
It is alleged that a neighbour, Simangaliso Moyo, arrived at the scene with a sjambok and whipped the chained teen.
Mpofu then allegedly boiled water which she poured onto the half-dead maid’s private parts, saying that was to stop her from having sex with any man.
After assaulting the maid, the couple reported her to the police for theft leading to her arrest.
The maid pleaded guilty to theft when she appeared before Filabusi magistrate Abednico Ndebele but also exposed the abuse she allegedly suffered at the hands of her employers.
Moyo admitted that they had chained her to stop her from running away.
The magistrate ordered that the teenager must be examined by a State doctor and remanded her out of custody.
While she was out of custody, the maid reported the couple and Simangaliso to the police, for assaulting her and scalding her on her private parts with hot water.
A medical report detailing the extent of the injuries on the maid’s privates was availed in her second court appearance.
The maid was sentenced to six months in prison by magistrate Ndebele.
However, four months of the sentence were suspended for three years on condition that she does not commit an offence involving dishonesty.
The remaining two months were also suspended on condition that she restitutes the US$169.
The couple and their neighbour were arrested for assault and appeared before Filabusi magistrate Sukoluhle Belinda Nunu last Wednesday.
Magistrate Nunu remanded them out of custody on $40 000 bail each, to 3 February for trial. | <a href="https://www.bmetro.co.zw/man-wife-gang-up-to-torture-thief-maid/">B-Metro</a>

Independent legislator, Temba Mliswa has asked why cabinet minister keep huge amounts of foreign currency in their houses.
Mliswa suggested that the money could be used for illegal foreign currency dealing on the black market. <a href="https://twitter.com/TembaMliswa" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">He said:</a>
<blockquote>So how much forex hard cash do these Ministers keep in their homes and for what? What’s the law regarding money hoarding?
Isn’t this forex for money changing or maybe for working so hard for the Chinese? So ZANU PF Youth League were correct.
So the Ministers don’t bank but the ordinary citizen must bank? This certainly will open a can of worms…</blockquote>

Mutsvangwa's Housemaid Sentenced To 3 Years In Jail

Information and Broadcasting Services Minister, Monica Mutsvangwa reportedly lost US$25 000 to her housemaid.
