incident.

“We urge people to seek professional counselling whenever they feel depressed and stressed to avoid unnecessary loss of lives. There are amicable ways of solving marital disputes than taking your own life,” he said.

Panganai Ndadzungire (23) of the same village was on his way to Penhalonga Township when he saw Munotyeni’s body hanging from a tree branch. He notified the police who attended the scene and discovered a suicidal letter which was inside his pocket.

“He revealed that he had committed suicide because his wife had told him that he was not the biological father of all his purported children,” said Insp Kakohwa.

Kudzai Nyamunokora went to his in-laws’ homestead to take back his wife, Winnie Mutsoni who had moved out of the matrimonial house following his decision to marry another woman.

“Nyamunokora dragged Mutsoni into his in-laws’ bedroom and assaulted her with a stick. He stabbed her once on the forehead and stomach. He also stabbed himself once on the stomach,” he said.
