A MAZOWE man on Saturday stabbed two men to death after accusing one of them of stepping on the foot of his lover at a bar in Budiriro.
Cogitate Ganyiwa fled from the scene after stabbing Alec Ruvhere and Tadiwanashe Murerwa.
Cogitate stabbed the two with an Okapi knife following a misunderstanding after Tadiwanashe stepped on the foot of his lover Tadiwanashe Zivani, 21, at Royal Night Club, in Budiriro 1.
The incident took place at around 1am.
Harare provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Luckmore Chakanza, confirmed the case appealing for information that may lead to the arrest of Cogitate.

“One of the deceased was reported to have been grabbed by the collar, following a misunderstanding, and the other deceased intervened.
“Accused stabbed the now deceased persons on the lower diaphragms using an okapi knife.
“The first deceased collapsed and was taken to Sally Mugabe Hospital for medical treatment and was pronounced dead upon arrival.
“The second deceased tried to run away from the scene and later fell down outside the night club.
