A MAN from Budiriro 2 in Harare was on Friday dragged to court by his wife, who revealed that their marriage had become sour after he started bedding his late best friend’s wife barely two weeks after he died.
Caroline Matutu made these allegations against Lazarus Banda before Harare magistrate Johanna Mukwesha in her application for a protection order.She told the court that Banda was physically abusing her because he wanted to chase her and their children away from their matrimonial home. Matutu also accused Banda of coming home late and harassing her in a bid to frustrate her to leave the house.
She also submitted that her husband had a sexual relationship with his late best friend’s wife and assumed that he wanted to start living with her.Banda, however, denied harassing Matutu, whom he accused of failing to perform her conjugal duties.
