Wife stabs husband to death over US$1
Shocked young girl, looking at camera with mouth wide open. Oh my god! Wow!
Liberty Takaza was stabbed twice in the chest and shoulder with a kitchen knife by his wife Prisca Takaza, 29, during the argument.
The argument was triggered by a gas cooker which had cost a dollar more than what she had budgeted.
Liberty was rushed to hospital where he was pronounced dead.
He was 39.
Liberty had bought the top for US$5 when Prisca wanted him to buy one for US$4 from another shop.
Harare provincial deputy police spokesperson, Assistant Inspector Faith Mapisa, confirmed the case.
She said Prisca has been arrested and is facing murder charges.
“Accused person and now deceased were related as wife and husband.
“On Thursday, at around 0025 hours, the now deceased arrived home and was drunk.
“He had bought a gas cooker top for US$5.
“This did not go down well with the accused person who indicated that he should have bought the same top at US$4.
“The two started arguing whilst on their bed.
“The now deceased started accusing his wife of various issues.
“A heated argument arose and the two started shouting at each other.
“He started assaulting the accused person by choking her and they both fell to the floor near a dish full of kitchen utensils.
“The accused person took a kitchen knife and stabbed him once on the right side of the chest and once in the right shoulder.
“He sustained two deep cuts and bled profusely,” said Ass-Insp Mapisa. HMetro
