Murder most foul at Irvine's farm

The deceased Chisora

 

Runodada Witness

Workers of Ardno Farm owned by Irvines, one of Zimbabwe’s largest chicken producers, have been left shocked after one their own was brutally smashed almost decapitated.

A witness told Zim Now that they ran to the house on Tuesday night after blood curdling screams alerted them that something was terribly amiss.

Those who were brave enough to venture near could only look in horror at the bloody and lifeless corpse of the man they knew as Corporal Chisora, as the deceased was a security guard at the farm.

The alleged killer is one Tafirenyika Kawaza.

“They lived in a semi-detached house, occupying the two apartments next to each other. What we were told is that the two were sitting at the fireside in the evening.  Then, at some point they started going through pictures on Chisora’s phone. That is when the trouble started,” one resident said.

Allegations are that Kawaza saw pictures of his wife in Chisora’s phone.

Kasawa allegedly went on a rampage pulverising Chisora with hammer before opening up his neck.

Kawaza is married to Rumbidzai Mutimhodyo who is an ECD teacher at the farm school.

Sources said there were some outstanding marital disputes and Mutimhodyo had required separate housing indicating that a split was imminent.

Mutimhodyo was a semi-skilled worker at the farm until she decided to improve her lot by acquiring requisite O’ Level passes leading to her becoming an ECD teacher at the farm school.

Sources also said the couple’s son sustained some minor cuts after trying to step in and stop his father's attack on the late Chisora.

Mutimhodyo reportedly ran away to seek refuge at some neighbour’s place after Kasawa seemed ready to attack her after Chisora was immobilised.

Sources said Kawaza disappeared into the night. Beatrice Police attended the scene and supervised removal of the body.

Police confirmed that they are investigating a death at Ardno Farm and that details would be released in due course.
