A 19-year-old man from Bulawayo’s New Luveve suburb allegedly punched his stepmother with clenched fists several times after being questioned for stealing potatoes and money.
Barba Kayuva had a misunderstanding with her son, Jabulani Sithole, over stolen potatoes and money.
“I had a misunderstanding with my son after suspecting that he took advantage of my unlocked bedroom and stole some potatoes and $30 (bond),” said Kayuva.
It is reported that Sithole got angry after a misunderstanding with his mother.
“He went into my bedroom damaged the window and gained entry into the bedroom. He physical abused me with open hands, clapped me almost two times on the cheek” said sorrowful Kayuva.
The dramatic event was revealed at West Commonage Court. Sithole pleaded guilty before Magistrate Tancy Dube.
“I do admit to the charge laid against me. I bashed her because she had insulted me saying she is not my mother” said Sithole.
The case was postponed and trial will continue at a later date.
