In a bold move that unfolded in court, a woman from Harare recently dragged her boyfriend\u2019s wife to court, accusing her of breaching the peace.<\/p>\n
According to\u00a0H-Metro, Fabina Charuwanza initiated legal action against his boyfriend\u2019s wife, Stella Mwenda. <\/p>\n
She accused her of breaching the peace by posting pictures of Charuwanza on social media and allegedly stalking her.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Charuwanza stood firm in her plea, demanding the removal of her pictures from Mwenda\u2019s phone and an immediate halt to the dissemination of her images across social platforms. Charuwanza claimed that she did not know that her boyfriend was a married man.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t know that they are lawfully wedded because I saw his profile in a singles WhatsApp group,\u201d Charuwanza stated during the proceedings.<\/p>\n
Mwenda, who has three children with her husband, did not contest the peace order application. However, she clarified that her actions followed an earnest attempt to locate Charuwanza\u2019s address by searching her home.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe is my husband\u2019s girlfriend, and I wedded at Rotten Row, and they said that it is a one-wife marriage act and if I find my husband cheating, I should sue his girlfriend,\u201d Mwenda told the court.<\/p>\n
Expressing her distress, Mwenda revealed the strain on her marriage, citing her husband\u2019s absence for the past four months and their lack of intimacy due to Charuwanza\u2019s involvement.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am not his ex-wife, as she falsely claimed in her submissions. I have three children with him, and she needs to understand that,\u201d Mwenda emphasized.<\/p>\n
Following the intense courtroom exchange, Magistrate Sharon Mashavira ruled in favour of Charuwanza, granting her the peace order she sought against Mwenda.<\/p>\n
