Meanwhile, police in Mahusekwa have arrested a couple, Colleen Munemo (30) and Shepherd Mugava (29) in connection with a case of murder that occurred at Landos Business Centre, Chihota, when their six months old child died after being thrown on the ground during a domestic dispute on September 19, 2024.
The duo went on to make a false report to the police alleging that the child had fallen from the bed.
Investigations conducted by the police led to the arrest of the couple who have since appeared in court.
They were remanded in custody.
