Bhaureni reportedly became angry and disappeared from his house only to come back drunk. He started throwing stones at Mutambi’s house and insulting him.
Bhaureni threatened to kill Mutambi, who fled to his other neighbour’s house.
However, the determined Bhaureni armed himself with an axe, followed him and axed him on the leg.
