The ZRP confirmed the arrest of 20 year old Mabvuku resident Memory Moyana in connection with a case of murder. The arrest was instigated by a disturbing video which was circulating on social media, showing a woman brutally assaulting a naked minor in the toilet.
The incident occurred on 16/12/24 at a house along Hunga Street, Chizhanje, Mabvuku, Harare.
Preliminary investigations by the Police revealed that the suspect, who was the victim’s stepmother, attempted to cover up the heinous crime by claiming that the minor had been attacked by evil spirits.
As a result, the baby was taken to a self-proclaimed prophet in Ruwa, where she tragically died. The suspect and her husband, Talent Muchato (26) tried to secretly bury the victim at Mutinhima Village, Nyazura on 17/12/24.A concerned citizen later made a report to the Police.
