The unidentified woman married to a former worker, Guvi, at the Hurudza Central Intelligence, CIO, Offices in town, had been involved in a domestic dispute with her husband the previous night.

“Though the couple had reportedly been involved in a domestic dispute, the post-mortem suggested the woman did not lose her life as a result of physical bashing. Mind you, a number of people took their lives in the past as they jumped to their death into the dam.

People should be educated that taking their own life is not a solution for earthly problems. What would be the social and economic life of children and other dependents left behind?” said a source at the hospital where the post-mortem was conducted.

Meanwhile, residents expressed concern at the rate at which women were losing their lives in the town as a result of domestic violence. Early in August, a local businessman, Aruvera Chamunorwa “Hamburger Bay” shot dead a married girlfriend and drove the dead body to the Marondera District Police Station. He was arrested and released on bail.
