Shamva – A fight for a man went sour when a four months old baby lost its life after the infant’s mother was involved in a fist fight.
Prisca Dhirau (23) lost her four months old baby when she was involved in a fist fight with another woman whom the police have only identified as Mai Shumai Kanyoka at the present moment.
According to a police report, on Friday the 9th of December Dhirau was assaulted by Kanyoka at Logan Shopping Centre in Shamva.
Kanyoka accused Dhirau of having an extra-marital affair with her husband.
Kanyoka pushed Dhirau against a wall of a grocery shop and the baby who was strapped on her back died from the impact.
Meanwhile, police in Kadoma are investigating a murder case which occurred last Friday along Kadoma-Blue Ranges Road where Elisha Gundu (27), died after he was stabbed with a double blade flick knife on the head and throat by Hussen Nenji (38).
Gundu had accused Hussen of having an extra-marital affair with his wife.
Nenji has since been arrested.
Last week in Bulawayo a woman was murdered and her lifeless body raped by her husband over a suspected undisclosed marital dispute.
Residents are now engaged in too many marital disputes that end in deaths. Police are ever encouraging people to seek help in order to settle disputes.
It is important for people to value the sanctity of human life.
