Gokwe- A man was killed by his brother after confronting him for encroaching into his land while ploughing in an incident that took place on October 31, 2022.
It is alleged that Ruyamuro Matsaukirwa (42) of Matsaukirwa village under Chief Chireya was working on his field when his elder brother man Jongwe Matsaukirwa (49) of same village approached him and asked why he was encroaching into his field.
That led to a misunderstanding between the two which degenerated into a fight.
Jongwe snatched a machete from Ruyamuro and struck him once on the chin.
Ruyamuro however managed to disarm his brother and struck him on the back of the head before he died on the spot.
A report was made to the police and the suspect was arrested and will appear in court this week.
Jongwe’s body was ferried to Gokwe North District Hospital.
Midlands Provincial Police Spokesperson Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko has since appealed to members of the public to respect life.
“The police are urging members to respect sanctity of life. This incident could have been avoided by involving third parties,” he said.
Cases of gruesome murders continue on an upward trend in the Midlands province with machetes, axes and knives being the most used weapons in such killings.
