Shurugwi Man Killed For Spilling Beer

A 26-year-old man from Village 10, Zviumwa in Shurugwi was arraigned before the Shurugwi Magistrates’ Court, facing charges of murder.

The accusations stem from a fatal assault that allegedly occurred after a fellow bar patron spilt the accused’s beer.

According to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), the incident took place on July 7, 2024, at a bottle store located in the Zviumwa Business Centre in Shurugwi District, Midlands Province.

The accused, identified as Albert Gido, accused the 35-year-old victim, Future Ngwenya, of spilling his beer and proceeded to assault him with his bare hands.

Other patrons at the bar intervened and restrained Gido from further attacking Ngwenya. However, it is alleged that around 11 PM, after most of the other customers had left the premises, Gido assaulted Ngwenya again – this time with his bare hands and a plastic chair, while an accomplice, Trymore Manhoro (30), who remains at large, held the victim down.

The bar operator then chased both Gido and Manhoro out of the establishment. It is reported that Gido subsequently dragged the severely injured Ngwenya to a secluded location, where he allegedly stabbed the victim in the stomach and armpit with a sharp object.

The accused and his accomplice then fled the scene, leaving Ngwenya bleeding profusely and holding his protruding intestines.

Gido was remanded in custody until July 26.
