Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>A Chipinge businessman was arrested and charged with attempted murder after he severely assaulted and injured a Zimbabwe National Army (ZNA) officer who allegedly dated one of his eight wives.<\/p>\n

Edmore Mwoyongewenyu (42) popularly known as Doda was arrested last Thursday for assaulting Shepherd Makwenjere (22), a soldier.<\/p>\n

Mwoyongewenyu allegedly pointed a pistol at Makwenjere and had him handcuffed and his legs tied before unleashing 10 hired thugs on the soldier.<\/p>\n

The businessman reportedly hired 10 hired men armed with iron bars and batons who severely assaulted Makwenjere, who is stationed at the Zimbabwe National Army 1.2 Battalion in Hwange.<\/p>\n

Makwenjere is admitted at Victoria Chitepo Hospital in Mutare where he is in a serious condition.<\/p>\n

Mwoyongewenyu has more than eight wives including Naume Makuyana (20) who was allegedly dating Makwenjere.<\/p>\n

The businessman, who reportedly owns a fleet of trendy cars and several upmarket houses in Chipinge, is also married to Makuyana\u2019s elder sister Evidence (23).<\/p>\n

Allegations are that on 28 May 2022, at around 6 PM Makwenjere of House number 4180 Gaza E Chipinge proceeded to Doda\u2019s homestead to see Naume who had invited him over the phone.<\/p>\n

Makwenjere met Makuyana outside the house and was led into the bedroom.<\/p>\n

A few minutes later, Doda entered the bedroom in the company of Mapuranga and Mazuku.<\/p>\n

It was further alleged that Doda was armed with a pistol while the rest were armed with iron bars, a baton, handcuffs and a sjambok.<\/p>\n

Doda allegedly pointed a pistol at Makwenjere and instructed him to lie down while Mazuku handcuffed him.<\/p>\n

They also used a rope to tie Makwenjere\u2019s hands and legs. They also tied him to some logs and then severely assaulted him.<\/p>\n

It is alleged that the suspects assaulted the complainant for two hours. Doda is also alleged to have added salt to the fresh wounds on the complainant\u2019s back and buttocks.<\/p>\n

A ZNA Infantry Battalion vehicle later came and collected Makwenjere and ferried him to Victoria Chitepo Provincial Hospital.<\/p>\n

Makuyana\u2019s brother, Artwel Makuyana told Chipinge Times that Doda is married to his two sisters, Evidence (23) and Naume. He said:<\/p>\n

Doda is married to my two sisters Evidence and Naume. Evidence has been married for seven years now and Naume got married in 2018.<\/p>\n
