A DIVORCE has turned nasty as hubby tried to set his ex-wife on fire in the house, a court heard.

Prisca Mugwagwa disclosed this during a trial before a magistrate court where she applied for a restriction order against her ex-husband Aledeyse Mugwagwa.

Prisca said she is now living in fear due to her ex-husband’s behaviour after many attempts to burn her in the house together with the children.

“I am now living in fear as he is always trying to burn my house whilst the children and I will be inside.

“He once came at around midnight and poured thinners on the cloth that I use to divide the room and set it on fire.

“I suddenly saw some smoke coming from the other side and when I went to check what happening, I saw then saw him running away,” she said.H-Metro
