A 33-year-old woman was recently sentenced to 24 months imprisonment by a Mutare magistrate after she hit her 11-year-old biological daughter with a half-brick on the head, accusing her of not washing plates.

According to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), the woman, Debra Masese, was recently arraigned before the Mutare Magistrates’ Court facing physical abuse charges. Said the NPA:

The State proved that sometime in April 2024, the accused person physically assaulted Makanaka Masese her 11-year-old biological daughter with a half brick on the right side of the head.

The accused person went to town leaving the complainant with her brother. Upon coming back the accused person found out that the complainant had not washed the plates and this enraged the accused person resulting in her hitting the complainant with the brick.

The complainant fell down and became unconscious and the accused person went with her to the clinic for treatment.

Masese was arrested after the police were tipped off about the assault. The girl was interviewed and she confirmed the assault.

Masese was sentenced to 24 months imprisonment. However, 8 months were suspended and she will serve 16 months effective.
