Tragedy has hit a UK Zimbabwean family as their father Mr Caiphas Kadzutu (87) was sadly hit by pneumonia soon after jetting into the country from Zimbabwe.
 
Mr Kadzutu who had travelled to Britain for his only son’s graduation, is no more and his body now stranded in the UK.

Born in 1928, Mr Kadzutu died on the 3rd January at St Peter’s Hospital in Chertsey at 4:00 pm after Doctors failed to save him from aggressive bronchitic pneumonia. He had been admitted on Christmas eve.
 
His son is the prolific activist David Kadzutu who was graduating.
 
The elderly man is survived by 5 daughters, one son and several grandchildren.
 
The family has since launched an appeal for donations as they need £5000,00 for the repatriation and to date only £70.00 has been raised. TO DONATE, please follow the following GoFundMe link …..

  1. Even with the zim winter the elderly and very young need extra care worse with a UK winter. This was unnecessary risk for the elderly

  3. R.I.P to his father.this man was quite old.i know he wanted to attend his son’s graduation but the UK is very cold around this time and they should have been a bit cautious with him.The weather is different from Zim weather and for his age it would have been a bit hectic.I feel for the family and they didn’t know that it was going to turn out like this.For people with elderly parents please make sure you check thoroughly before you fly them to avoid these kinds of situations but then again no one can ever know except for God.May he rest in peace and God comfort his family through this difficult time.

  7. This headline is misleading. Dying from pneumonia is NOT being killed, as in someone who has been attacked.

  9. Editor your headline is very misleading. Can we please respect the family’s dignity and that of the deceased through acurate reporting. He wasn’t killed but he died through illness. Have some respect please
