Makorokoza violence claims life in Kadoma, father kills infant in domestic dispute

Zim Now Writer

A violent clash between rival mining gangs in Battlefields, Kadoma, has resulted in the tragic death of a 40-year-old woman, Matron Mpofu. The confrontation between the Ziga and Magrigamba gangs erupted into chaos, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.

Law enforcement has responded swiftly, arresting 27 suspects in connection with the murder. The violence extended beyond loss of life, with properties including vehicles, furniture, and personal belongings reduced to ashes.

In a separate, harrowing incident, a 38-year-old man from Epworth, Edison Chidzingwa, has been apprehended for the brutal murder of his three-month-old daughter and assault of his wife. The horrific attack, carried out with electric cables, claimed the life of the innocent infant.

Chidzingwa's motive for the heinous act is attributed to his disapproval of his wife's pregnancy without his consent. The community is reeling from the shocking incident, which highlights the urgent need for addressing domestic violence and gender-based issues.
