A man suspected of murdering his girlfriend, a student teacher on attachment at Guinea Fowl High School in Gweru, has been found hanging outside the school premises.
The lifeless body of the young woman, Keener Tsanana, a science teacher, was discovered just a day after she was last seen with her alleged boyfriend.
According to Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko, spokesperson for the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) in Midlands Province, preliminary investigations suggest that the suspect, 27-year-old Valentine Tamuka Zivera, took his own life.
Zireva’s decomposed remains were found just outside Guinea Fowl High School’s perimeter.
Keener Tsanana, just 21 years old, was discovered dead in her room on January 25, the day after she entered the school grounds with Zivera.
Her body showed visible signs of trauma, including a swollen forehead and multiple bruises, indicating a brutal assault.
The discovery of Zivera’s belongings in Tsanana’s room prompted police to initiate a manhunt for him.
