Police have arrested a man from Epworth for stabbing man to death after he saw the deceased walking with his ex-wife.

On Wednesday Innocent Saruma, 34, saw his ex-wife Talent Simba, 23, walking with Surance Sithole.

Saruma then stabbed Surance Sithole on the stomach. The single stab was so vicious that it left Sithole’s intestines hanging out.

Saruma dragged Simba away from the scene where the grievously injured Sithole remained.

“The victim was rushed to Parirenyatwa Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival,” the police report.

Several murders involving intimate partners have made the headlines this year, raising the red flag on GBV and the need for effective protection mechanisms for potential victims.

A Marondera man recently killed his ex-wife after he found her with her current lover.
