THE 35-year-old flea market vendor from Cowdray Park surburb in Bulawayo who was brutally killed on Monday last week has been buried.
Mrs Sithabile Ndlovu-Ncube who was killed and dumped in a storm drain by her alleged lover was buried at West Park Cemetery on Sunday. A relative, Mr Collen Ncube, confirmed the burial on Monday.
“The post mortem report stated that she died of strangulation, head injuries which resulted in internal bleeding and severe beatings all over the body. We laid her to rest at West Park Cemetery on Sunday,” said Mr Ncube.
Mrs Ndlovu-Ncube’s body was found lying naked in a pool of blood with bruises and deep cuts all over on Monday last week. She was married to Mr Costa Ncube who said he was out of town when his wife was killed.
Brighton Chagonda, a police officer at Luveve Police Station has since been arrested in connection with the alleged murder.
Chagonda appeared in court on Wednesday and was remanded in custody to 4 September. The police officer is alleged to have assaulted Mrs Ndlovu-Ncube with whom he was believed to be having an affair.
This was after she told him that her marriage was about to break because of the affair.
