What started as a simple friendly request for a beer ended in a brutal attack leaving the victim battling for life and the accused behind bars for attempted murder charges.
The accused from Kelvin Zambuko (31) Village 4 Chikwirira in Chiredzi, is up for attempted murder after he attacked a fellow villager, Brighton Mupfumba (40) with a stone in his head for refusing to buy alcohol for him at Chikwirira Township on May 29.
Masvingo Provincial Police Spokesperson Inspector Kudakwashe Dhewa confirmed the incident to TellZim News and urged members of the public to solve disputes without the use of violence.
“I confirm an incident of attempted murder where a man was attacked with a stone by the accused after he refused to buy beer for him at Chikwirira Township.
“Brighton was admitted on a serious condition and Zambuko was arrested and is assisting police with investigations. I urge members of the public to resolve disputes without the use of violence,” said Insp Dhewa.
Circumstances are that on May 29 at around 1500 hours Brighton went to Chikwirira Township to drink beer with his friends and he did not return home on that day. His father Moses Mupfumba (73) looked for him but failed to locate Brighton.
The following day, Moses found his son Brighton lying unconscious on the ground near the township. Moses then took Brighton to Chikwirira clinic for medical attention.
Brighton gained consciousness and told his father that Zambuko was the one who had attacked him with a stone on his head and had beaten him all over the body after he refused to buy beer for him.
Later on Brighton was referred to Chiredzi General Hospital where he was admitted on a serious condition.
