A heartbroken man from Harare, Zimbabwe has accused his wife of having been impregnated by her own uncle.
Luke Mareya revealed this when he dragged his wife Elizabeth Jasi to court seeking a protection order.
Mareya told the court:
“I no longer love her. She broke my heart. She was impregnated by her uncle and all along she has been lying to me that the son belonged to her ex-husband.
They frequently see each other and the issue came to light when her uncle’s wife revealed it to me that I was staying with her husband’s son. She does not want to discuss the issue and she has the tendency of beating me up. I have sustained injuries due to her violent actions.
She emotionally abuses her uncle’s wife and she does not even respond to her greetings. I took the matter to my in-laws who then demanded $1000 for lobola before any discussion.”
Jasi, on the other hand, did not dispute the allegations but counter accused her husband of being abusive.
She told the court:
“Vane makuhwa ambuya, ndoda kuvarova. (I am going to beat up that aunt because of her gossip)
I still love my husband, Your Worship, but he is harassing and insulting me…Some of the things he is saying are correct and some of them are lies.”
Presiding magistrate Tafadzwa Miti ruled in favour of the husband and ordered Jasi to observe peace towards him.
