A 25-year old man from Mazowe appeared before Harare Magistrate Dennis Mangosi, facing a murder charge after he allegedly stabbed a fellow artisanal miner during an argument.
Tatenda Chidavaenzi, 25, was told to apply for bail at the High Court and return to court on June 16 pending investigations.
The court heard that on February 24, 2023, at around 0300 hours, the now deceased, Webster Ndlovu, 42, was at White City Farm, Christon Bank, where he was panning for gold in the company of his friends.
Chidavaenzi and his crew allegedly intimidated them in an attempt to make them leave the spot.
Ndlovu resisted, resulting in Chidavaenzi stabbing him several times in the chest and back.
He was rushed to Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals where he was pronounced dead upon arrival.
Chidavaenzi went into hiding but was arrested by detectives from the Criminal Investigations Department Homicide at Munyati Farm, Mazowe on May 30.
