Hwange – A domestic row in Makwika Village ended in bloodshed last week after 32-year-old Eunice Ngwenya allegedly stabbed her boyfriend, Mbekezeli Sibanda (32), in a brutal attack that left him seriously injured.
The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) said the incident occurred around 12:50 PM on 18 August 2025, as Ngwenya, Sibanda, and Ngwenya’s sister walked together. The dispute reportedly started over Sibanda’s inner garment, which Ngwenya allegedly refused to hand back despite his repeated pleas.
According to the NPA, Ngwenya later returned to her home in F18 Makwika Village while Sibanda waited outside on the verandah. Moments later, she came back holding the garment — but hidden inside it was a kitchen knife.
When Sibanda reached for his clothing, Ngwenya allegedly drew the knife and stabbed him twice — once in the right arm and again in the chest.
Bleeding heavily, Sibanda attempted to seek assistance from a colleague but collapsed before reaching him. He eventually managed to get home, where a friend rushed him to report the case to police and seek medical treatment. A medical report confirming his injuries will be produced in court.
