SELF-STYLED prophet Madzibaba Gideon and the elderly man he forced his minor daughter to marry, have been arrested.
Madzibaba Gideon, real name Sibiniyo Chikurunhe, and Madzibaba Wonder Kabasa, his elderly son-in-law, were arrested over the controversy related to the marriage of a minor child.
The two were in handcuffs on Friday as they showed police and pathologists the grave where they buried his other child, without the knowledge of his ex-wife, Memory Mukanairi.
The body of that child was exhumed on Friday.
Madzibaba Gideon’s minor child, who was dragged into the controversial marriage, was at the shrine when the exhumation took place.
“Madzibaba Gideon did not only bury his child without the knowledge of his wife but he also gave his minor child into marriage,” said one of the people who witnessed the exhumation.
“Ndiye mukuwasha wake iyeye, ivo sekuru vakuru ivavo.
“He forced his daughter into an early marriage to that elderly church member.
“That is so cruel and evil,” said one of the people who witnessed the exhumation.
Madzibaba Gideon caused a scene, challenging the police officers to show cause why they had arrested him and why they were forcing him to remain at the grave during the exhumation.
Police later excused him from following the proceedings.
The body was exhumed with the pathologists demanding that the media be barred from the final proceedings.
The body was taken to a hospital mortuary awaiting a post-mortem and reburial at another cemetery.
