A GWERU man went berserk and butchered his wife ripping off her chest in a gruesome domestic violence case.

Felix Chimwanda of Ascot high-density suburb allegedly left Agnes Makuvise for dead.

Makuvise narrated her ordeal from her hospital bed.

“I was at home in the evening with my young sister whom l stay with. My ex-husband came to my house and asked that we talk outside. We then started talking while walking towards Ascot Stadium. He suddenly drew a knife and stabbed me. He wanted to slit my throat but l managed to fight him,” she said.

“I then passed out and only woke up in early hours of the morning and l crawled more than a kilometre to a nearby road so that passers-by could help me,” she said.

Midlands medical superintendent Dr Fabian Mashingaidze confirmed that Makuvise was admitted at the hospital with severe stab wounds.

Midlands police spokesperson Inspector Joel Goko could not be reached for comment.

Makuvise sustained deep cuts at the back, on her face, hands and a deep laceration on the chest as a result of the assault.
