By Own Correspondent| A Bulawayo woman, Fadzai Mativenga (33), reportedly rushed in panic to alert her boyfriend’s wife after unknown assailants attacked and killed her lover while the two were having sex in a bush.

The late Jameson Mwembe allegedly took advantage of an electricity blackout to have a tryst with Mativenga who is one of his neighbours before being attacked and killed by two unknown assailants.

According to Mativenga, the two love birds were allegedly attacked by two people who were wearing black clothes that covered them up at a rocky area between Mabutweni and Njube suburbs at about 10 PM on Saturday.

The incident happened some metres away from the man’s house in Mabutweni.

Mativenga is in a critical condition at Mpilo Central Hospital as she sustained head injuries.

Mwembe’s wife, Mrs Rudo Mwembe, said a bloodied Mativenga broke away from the assailants and rushed to inform her that her husband had been attacked.

Said Mwembe struggling between sobs:

“At around 10 PM, this woman came knocking at my door, she called me by name. She told me that she was on her way from church when she found my husband lying lifeless on the ground.

I suspected she had a hand in my husband’s attack because why would she know me by name and my house. When l wanted to rush to get a vehicle to take my husband to the hospital, she said we should first rush to the scene and check if he was still breathing.”
