Talent Priveledge Sibanda (27), from Madhuve Village, Mberengwa, was sentenced to an effective 26 months in prison for killing her newborn baby about two weeks ago.
According to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), Sibanda was arraigned before the Zvishavane Magistrates’ Court facing infanticide charges.
Sometime in June 2023, Sibanda separated from her husband, but they later reunited in February 2024 while she was pregnant by another man.
On October 27, 2024, around 7 PM, Sibanda gave birth to a baby girl while she was alone. She then strangled the infant and buried the body in a pit in a nearby field, just a few meters from her home.
The matter came to light when Sibanda’s niece noticed that she was no longer pregnant and reported the incident to the police, leading to Sibanda’s arrest.
During the investigation, Sibanda revealed to the authorities the location where she had buried the child.
The court sentenced Sibanda to 36 months of imprisonment, but 10 months of the sentence were suspended for 5 years on the condition of good behaviour. As a result, Sibanda will serve an effective 26 months in prison.

Infanticide is the act of intentionally causing the death of an infant, typically within the first year of life and some of the reasons for infanticide in Zimbabwe include poverty and mental illness.
There have been reports of young women who kill their newly-born infants because they cannot afford to take care of them.
In some cases, where a mother is suffering from postpartum depression or other mental health issues, she may feel overwhelmed and unable to care for her child resulting in infanticide.
Postpartum depression is a mood disorder that can affect women after childbirth, and it can cause a range of symptoms, including feelings of sadness, anxiety, and exhaustion.

Marondera Couple Secretly Bury Daughter (1) Along Riverbank

The body of a baby was on Saturday found in a burst sewer pipe at Lobengula Primary School in Bulawayo in a suspected case of infanticide.
The baby boy’s body, suspected to have been flushed in a toilet, popped out of a sewage pond.
It is thought that someone could have terminated a pregnancy before flushing the infant into the toilet system leading to the sewer blockage.
The body was reportedly still intact meaning the person could have flushed the baby in the morning or the previous night.
Police in Bulawayo confirmed the incident and the matter is now under investigation. Bulawayo police spokesperson Inspector Abednico Ncube said:
<blockquote>I can confirm that the police are investigating a case of terminating pregnancy where on 29 May, a dead infant was discovered by residents in a sewer at Lobengula Primary School. Investigations over the matter are still in progress and awaiting post-mortem.</blockquote>
Insp Ncube appealed to members of the public who might have any information on the case to come forward. He said:
<blockquote>We are appealing to members of the public who might have information on the case or if you know someone who was pregnant but is no longer pregnant.
Please report to the nearest police station. I urge members to desist from killing innocent babies, something can be worked out than killing them.</blockquote>
