MDC Alliance Official Bashed By Own Son

MDC Alliance Manicaland provincial treasurer and Rusape-based businessman, Patrick Sagandira’s marital and family disputes continue to spill into the public arena following the arrest of his son for allegedly assaulting him, reports Manica Post.

Onayi Sagandira (20) appeared before Rusape magistrate, Rufaro Mangwiro last week for bashing his father whom he accuses of neglecting him.

Onayi, who is now out of custody, pleaded not guilty before the court and said his father was lying about the assault.

He said that his father is the one who had assaulted him, before rushing to make a false police report.

Meanwhile, prosecutor Melissa Saidi said Onayi assaulted his father several times all over the body, resulting in him sustaining some injuries. She told the court:

On April 9, the complainant went to his Castle Base home to collect a meat scale. The accused person closed the gate and questioned his father on why he was neglecting him. He slapped his father all over the body with open hands. Onayi also pushed his father to the ground.

In another case involving a Sagandira family member, Rusape magistrate, Ruth Moyo acquitted Sagandira’s first wife Doreen who was facing charges of stealing underpants from Sagandira and his second wife.

Doreen who was represented by Munyaradzi Manyengavana of Chiwanza and Associates was acquitted at the close of the State case after Moyo ruled that the case was very weak and fabricated.
