Man (77) murders wife

A 77-year-old Warren Park man landed in the dock over the weekend after he allegedly struck his wife with an iron bar, causing her instant death.

Tinos Zvavanhu Mposhi, who was arrested in the early hours of Friday after handing himself to the police, was not asked to plead when he appeared before Harare magistrate, Yeukai Dzuda, who remanded him in custody.

The court heard that Mposhi, who is a suspected mental patient, struck his late wife, Rosemary Mposhi, with an iron bar, after an argument.

Mposhi then handed himself to the police.

His wife’s body was found lying in a pool of blood when the police attended the scene.
