In a case of an exorcism gone wrong, a sangoma beat his client to death during a cleansing ceremony. According to the youthful self-styled traditional healer, he was attacking the goblins which were causing his client’s misfortunes.
iHarare has learned from local publication H-Metro that 26-year-old Isaac Tete of Athens Compound, Chinhoyi has since been arrested and charged with the murder of his client Vunganai Munyengedzi. He appeared before Chinhoyi provincial magistrate Melody Rwizi to answer to the charges of killing his client.
The magistrate granted Tete $10 000 bail and remanded him to 1 April.
The court heard that after being approached for a consultation, the sangoma told Munyengedzi that he should undergo a healing and cleansing ceremony to get rid of the goblins which he claimed were bringing misfortune to him.
The cleansing ceremony was carried out between January 9 and 11 at Long Valley Plots, Murereka in Lions Den. The court heard that at some point during the ceremony, Tete picked up a log and started beating up Munyengedzi claiming that he was attacking the evil goblins. Munyengedzi sustained serious injuries during the ferocious attack on the goblins.
The injuries were so severe that he was transported to the Chinhyoi Provincial Hospital where he was admitted. Unfortunately, Munyengedzi died later on that day from the injuries sustained during the cleansing ceremony.
The youthful Sangoma then disappeared and was only arrested on January 21.
Tete is being represented by Joshua Mangeyi’s law firm.

What to Compare
When shopping for private health insurance, compare premiums, deductibles, copays, out-of-pocket maximums, prescription coverage, and provider networks.

Health insurance is important for protecting your finances. Self-employed workers should compare plans carefully before choosing coverage.
Mortgage Refinance Rates and Home Loan Savings
Mortgage Refinance Rates: When to Refinance
Homeowners often consider refinancing when mortgage refinance rates are lower than their current rate. Refinancing replaces your existing mortgage with a new loan.
A refinance may help lower monthly payments, reduce interest costs, change loan terms, or access home equity.
Types of Mortgage Refinance
A rate-and-term refinance changes the interest rate or loan length. A cash out refinance allows homeowners to borrow against home equity and receive cash at closing.
Cash out refinancing can be useful for home improvements or debt consolidation, but it increases the loan balance.
Costs to Compare
Refinancing includes closing costs such as lender fees, appraisal fees, title fees, and recording fees. Homeowners should calculate the break-even point before refinancing.
Conclusion
Mortgage refinance rates can create savings, but refinancing only makes sense when the long-term benefit is greater than the cost.
