Man kills wife after catching her pants down with lover, hangs self

In a bizzare incident, a Beatrice man Bwanali Belo of Gabaza farm under Chief Seke killed his wife after catching her red-handed with a boyfriend.

Bwanali then buried his wife alone but later confided the incidences to a third person before hanging himself from a beam at his house.

Belo hanged himself on Monday morning after he killed his wife Enia James (27) of the same farm last month.

Allegations are that Bwanali went to Darwendale in Harare on October 29 to his in-laws' place and told his father-in-law James Simani (59) that he had caught his wife with another man.

When he returned home, he allegedly killed his wife and buried her. He informed his neighbours that she eloped with her boyfriend.

On monday morning, he took his neighbour Lazarous Kasvosve (16) and showed him where he buried his wife and also informed him about the incident. He then proceeded to Gabaza farm and hanged himself. Police dug out the remains of James.
