He appeared before Mwenezi Resident Magistrate Honesty Musiiwa on Friday last week facing a charge of violating graves.
Prosecutor Leyton Katsidzira told the court that on 3 October 2021, Gumbo proceeded to Magwegwe’s grave and dug it out to a depth of 1.4m.
Villagers who saw him reported the matter to the police leading to his arrest.
The court ordered him to be examined by two doctors as it is suspected that the accused is mentally challenged.
