Money changers seek protection order

Matwara who was seeking a peace order.
The other two, Memory Bhozho and Prisca Kangoma who had made a similar application against Mtekwa, did not attend court and their claim was dismissed. Matwara told the court that Mtekwa had been bullying her colleagues at the shopping mall.
“She insults and assaults us. She threatened to do a Caesarean section on me using a knife.
“I am now scared of her and she should move away from the place,” she said.
In response, Mtekwa told the court that she was highly temperamental and did not take provocation easily.
“Brenda thinks she is now invincible because of her pregnancy. She shouts at people and expects them to keep quiet. Not with me, I don’t take that lightly.
“She was conducting her business at Road Port before she joined me at Eastgate and I think she should move back where she came from,” she said.
Matwara interjected and told the court that she could not move insisting that Mtekwa should move instead.
“It is true that I had been conducting my business at Road Port but it was during the Zimbabwe dollar era.
“People have since shifted points.
“All my customers are now accustomed to my new point,’’ she said.
Magistrate Mr Milton Serima granted a reciprocal peace order.
He further ordered the two to co-exist at their place of work.
