When the 34-year-old caught the two trousers down in her married home, she killed her husband’s girlfriend with a knife, leading to her incarceration in Zimbabwe.
The Mkoba community is in shock following the tragedy that happened in Mkoba Village 14, Gweru, on Saturday night, February 10, 2024.
When Stacy Thokozani Mkhandla, the suspect, allegedly received word from neighbours that her husband had brought a woman into their home, she was away for an all-night church prayer.
The woman, Thokozani Mkhandla reportedly left home at around 7 pm on Saturday for a church prayer leaving her husband, Tafadzwa Munyoro with their two minors home.
Tafadzwa then left the minors alone and returned home around 10 pm the same night in the company of her girlfriend, Brightness Nancy Phiri. A neighbour then informed the wife of the development.
Midlands provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko, who confirmed the incident to journalists on Sunday said Thokozani Mkhandla unceremoniously returned home and found the two lovebirds tangling on the couple’s matrimonial bed.
“Mkhandla returned home the same Saturday night from a church night prayer and found Phiri and her husband, Tafadzwa Emmanuel Munyoro in the bedroom,” said Insp Mahoko.
He said Mkhandla took a kitchen knife and tried to stab her husband’s girlfriend but he restrained her and took the knife outside the bedroom.
“While Tafadzwa was out, Mkhandla took another knife in the kitchen and stabbed Phiri several times in the body. Phiri managed to escape out of the house and jumped out of the precast walls but soon collapsed on the street and died,” said Insp Mahoko.
He said police arrived at the scene leading to the arrest of Mkhlandla.
“Phiri’s body was taken to Gweru Provincial Hospital and the suspect is now in police custody,” he said.
