A Zimbabwean man who found used c0ndoms under his matrimonial bedroom on his birthday has confronted his wife.
In the process, she hired bouncers to assault him and throw him out of their home.
Kenias Zimbwa recounted his ordeal at the Harare Civil Court, alleging that his wife, Chipiwa Taruona, enlisted two men, including her brother, a soldier, to att@ck him.
He claimed the men b3at him, left him bruised, and forced him out of the house n@ked.
“I came home on my birthday to find used c0ndoms under my bed, and when I confronted her, she hired bouncers to attack me. One of the bouncers was her brother, who is a soldier. They attacked me, leaving me with bruises, and threw me out of the house while I was n@ked. My wife also once attacked me with a screwdriver four times,” Zimbwa told the court.
He further alleged that his wife had been depriving him of his marital rights for months while engaging in extramarital affairs. “I was hurt to know that my wife has been having extramarital affairs after starving me of s3x for months. She does not cook for me, and I am forced to sleep without a blanket or rather on the floor. I am scared that she will end up k!lling me. I wish the court could protect me,” he added.
In her defence, Chipiwa admitted to hiring the bouncers but argued that it was an act of retaliation, alleging that Zimbwa had been abusing her for years. “My husband is in the habit of s3xually abusing me for years. I hired people to attack him,” she told the court.
Presiding over the case, Magistrate Meenal Narotam ruled in Chipiwa’s favour, granting her a protection order. The magistrate advised Zimbwa to file his own application for protection if he felt threatened.
