A jealous 34-year-old man, Mukolobetsi Phuti, who assaulted his wife with a metal bicycle pump, is in trouble with the law.
Phuti appeared before magistrate Joshua Nembaware at the Plumtree Magistrates Courts on Friday facing an assault charge, to which he pleaded not guilty.
Nembaware remanded Phuti in custody to June 12.
Prosecutor Selestine Madziwa told the court that on May 25, Phuti went to his ex-wife’s place around midnight and forced his way into the house.
Upon entering, he took the complainant’s phone and saw her pictures with her current boyfriend, leading him to become violent.
He assaulted the complainant with a metal bicycle pump on the head and only stopped when he saw blood oozing from her head.
A police report was filed, leading to Phuti’s arrest.
