25-Year Old Man Murders His 68 Year Old Employer, For Turning Down His Love Proposal
A domestic worker from Gweru, Zimbabwe has been arrested for allegedly killing and subsequently burning the body of his 68-year-old employer after she turned down his love proposal.
Emmanuel Sibanda (25) of Plot 50 Ruby Farm yesterday appeared before Gweru magistrate Mr Musaiona Shortgame facing a charge of murder. He was not asked to plead and remanded in custody to July 7 for confirmation of his warned and cautioned statement. Sibanda was advised to apply for bail at the High Court.
State prosecutor, Mr Daniel Tapfuma told the court that on June 21, Sibanda had a misunderstanding with his employer Mrs Jerina Chipato after she turned down his love proposal.
“Sibanda went on to attack the now deceased by striking her once on her head with a dry log and she fell on the ground unconscious. The accused went on to drag the deceased into her kitchen hut and set alight the thatched roof,” he said.
The woman was burnt to death. Mr.Tapfuma said Sibanda then called out for help claiming that Mrs. Chipato had accidentally been burnt to death in her kitchen hut. He said suspicious neighbors who responded searched the accused’s bedroom hut for some clues on what could have happened.
“The matter came to light when the accused’s bedroom hut was searched, leading to the recovery of Sibanda’s clothes which were stained with blood. The deceased’s cellphone was also found hidden in his clothes,” said Mr Tapfuma.
Sibanda, in his warned and cautioned statement, confessed to murdering his boss. He said on the day in question, he had proposed love to Mrs. Chipato and she turned him down.
