Sungura musician Alick Macheso has been ordered to pay  US$1030 in maintenance to his estranged second wife Tafadzwa Mapako and their two children.

Magistrate Tafadzwa Muvhami ordered Macheso to pay US$750 in child support and US$280 for Tafadzwa.

Mr Muvhami said the sungura star is legally liable to maintain Tafadzwa as there are no witnesses to confirm that Macheso gave her a divorce token (gupuro) meaning their union legally subsists.

The magistrate ordered the two to agree on  a date to conduct paternity tests but not later June 6, 2014.

Meanwhile, Tafadzwa had to be escorted in and out of the Civil Court premises by riot police as scores of Macheso fans who had gathered at the complex threatened to physically attack her.
