The Zimbabwe Republic Police has confirmed the arrest of Memory Moyana (20) in connection with a case of murder. The arrest follows a disturbing video circulating on social media, showing a woman brutally assaulting a naked minor in the toilet.
In a statement the ZRP said the incident occurred on the 16th of December 2024 at a house along Hunga Street, Chizhanje, Mabvuku, Harare.
It said preliminary investigations by the Police reveal that the suspect, who was the victim’s stepmother, attempted to cover up the heinous crime by claiming that the minor had been attacked by evil spirits.
As a result, the baby was taken to a self-proclaimed prophet in Ruwa, where she tragically died. The suspect and her husband, Talent Muchato (26) tried to secretly bury the victim at Mutinhima Village, Nyazura on the 17th of December 2024. A concerned citizen later made a report to the Police.
