FAMILY had to abandon their plans to bury their relative, after the grave had been prepared, whose body was collected by the police for a post-mortem as part of a murder investigation.
The body of Jessica Cheza was about to be laid to rest when the police arrived, following a tip-off that the deceased was beaten to death by her husband, Francis Jeyi.
Francis, who was leading mourners to the grave site, was arrested.
The incident took place at Jeyi Village, under Chief Chinamhora, in Domboshava.
Mashonaland East provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Simon Chazovachii, confirmed the arrest.
“Police arrested a Domboshava man reported to have assaulted his wife to death,” said Insp Chazovachii.
“The burial of the deceased was stopped and the body was collected and taken to a hospital mortuary, awaiting a post-mortem,” he said.
One of the relatives told H-Metro that Jessica, a mother of three, had been subjected to physical abuse.

On Thursday, Francis assaulted his wife and this drew the attention of their neighbours.
“She died after some hours and the case was concealed.
“Jessica’s parents came and they spent the whole Friday in closed meetings where they fined Francis for killing their daughter.
“They had agreed to bury her on Friday but it was postponed to Saturday to allow Francis to pay part of the money demanded by his in-laws before burial.
“The whole village was stunned by this and someone informed police, leading to the arrest.
“Vanatezvara vakaripisa Francis kuti varadzike mwana wavo iye akafa nekurohwa.”The body of Jessica Cheza was about to be laid to rest when the police arrived, following a tip-off that the deceased was beaten to death by her husband, Francis Jeyi.

Mass Tort Lawyer vs Class Action Lawyer: What Is The Difference?
Many people confuse mass torts and class actions. Both involve many people harmed by similar conduct, but they are not the same. A mass tort lawyer or class action lawyer can explain which type of case may apply.
rnrn
In a class action, many people are treated as one group. The claims are usually similar, and one case represents the class.
rnrn
In a mass tort, many people may be harmed by the same product or company, but each person’s injuries may be different. Cases may be handled individually while still being coordinated together.
rnrn
Mass torts often involve dangerous drugs, medical devices, toxic exposure, defective products, or environmental harm.
rnrn
Class actions may involve consumer fraud, data breaches, wage claims, or defective products where damages are similar.

Choosing the right legal path matters. A lawyer can review your facts and explain whether your claim fits a class action, mass tort, or individual lawsuit.
