The Bulawayo Regional Magistrates’ Court has sentenced 3 inmates to 20 years imprisonment each for aggravated indecent assault.
 

On December 29, 2024, at approximately 2100hours, during a power outage at Bulawayo Prison, three inmates, aged 30, 24, and 29, who were cellmates with the 20 year old victim aggravated indecently assaulted the victim.

The incident began when the 1st offender, aged 30, approached the victim and asked him to sleep near him, which the victim refused. The 1st offender then returned with another 2nd offender, aged 24, and both insisted that the victim come to their sleeping space and the victim continued to refuse.

Subsequently, these two offenders lifted and manhandled the victim to their sleeping area. The offenders forced the victim to lie on his right side, while the 3rd offender, aged 29, covered the victim’s face with a blanket, pressing him down firmly. That was when they took turns to sexually assault the victim by performing anal sexual intercourse without the victim’s consent.

The victim reported the matter to the wardens and it was referred to the police and he was referred for medical examination.
