Zimbabwe | Suspect Believed to Be Hiding in South Africa or Botswana
A regional manhunt is underway for Prince Ncube (27), who is wanted by police in connection with the fatal stabbing of his brother, Pardon Ncube (30), at Gwenyambira Shopping Centre. The shocking incident, which occurred in April 2025, has left the community reeling after Pardon succumbed to his injuries upon arrival at a local medical centre, according to police.
Investigators say an argument between the brothers escalated violently, ending in a stabbing that proved fatal. Prince Ncube fled the scene and has not been located since, prompting authorities to widen the search beyond Zimbabwe. Law-enforcement sources now believe the suspect may have crossed into South Africa or Botswana, intensifying calls for public assistance.
What has fueled public outrage is the profile of the suspect. Prince Ncube is a trained nurse in Zimbabwe and had recently married before the incident—details that have amplified shock and debate online. Residents describe the tragedy as senseless, with many calling for swift justice and accountability as tributes pour in for the victim.
Police are urging anyone with information on Prince Ncube’s whereabouts to contact their nearest police station immediately. Authorities stress that even small tips could be critical in bringing the suspect to account and helping the family find closure as the investigation continues.
