One moment of transactional sex for US$3 has left a 17-year-old teen girl from Chipinge traumatized after the man who had solicited for the act with her as she was stranded collapsed and died while having sexual intercourse with her.
In a leaked police memo circulating on social media, the now deceased 37-year-old Kudakwashe Magaya Mushayi, a tout from Nyahunda Village Chief Ziki was discovered lying on the ground under a tree by one Freeman Asima on the way to his garden after which a report was made to the police.
Allegations are that on February 25, 2024 at around 1500 hours, the girl (name withheld) boarded a commuter omnibus with the hope of meeting her boyfriend at Birchenough Bridge who had a promised to pay for her travelling expenses after her arrival.
Things however went south after she failed to get hold of her boyfriend on his mobile and the girl shared her ordeal with Mushayi at Birchenough Bridge Centre who promised to pay the bus fare in exchange for sexual pleasure and he gave the money to Peter Tafirenyika who gave it to the kombi driver.
Mushayi made arrangements with the girl for a place to have sexual intercourse and boarded a Toyota Probox vehicle which dropped them off near Birchenough Bridge Hotel. The two went into a nearby bush where they had sex and the deceased fell down and became unconscious during the act.
The girl reportedly tried to offer help by calling the deceased’s name, to no response and she fled the scene.
She then went to Musharu Bus Terminus where she met with her boyfriend.
After a report was made to police, they were led to the scene by Asima and the girl was picked for interviews and led the police to the scene.
Police investigated the scene and the body was found intact, in his clothes and a black wallet was found in his pocket with US$1, ZWL$1 100, black power bank, H cellphone and a bazooka radio placed on the side of his body.
The body was ferried to Birchenough Bridge Hospital Mortuary.
