On Monday at around 2 am the two accused persons Sarudzai Mukwaira and Erina Joswa residing at Mukwaira village proceeded to Tombotiya’s place of residence.

Erina entered the pen and killed the sheep by strangling them whilst Sarudzai was checking if any person was coming.

They took off with sheep on their heads and went through the forest to avoid a trace of prints.

They took the stolen sheep to Sarudzai’s homestead and hid them in the wardrobe and at around 7 am, they them started skinning the animals.

Upon arrest by members of the neighbourhood watch committee, the women denied the charges but a search was conducted leading to the discovery of a dish containing two slaughtered sheep.
