A 33-year-old Mutorashanga woman gave birth to a bouncing baby boy before allegedly dug a shallow pit in which she buried him alive.
Margaret Musarapasi of Plot 12 Chihamba, Mutorashanga this Thursday appeared before Chinhoyi magistrate Tendai Banda facing one count of infanticide.
She was remanded in custody to 1 March 2021 for plea recording after the defence requested more time to peruse the docket.
The State case led by Tendai Tapi is that on 5 February this year at around 11 pm, a heavily pregnant Musarapasi, who was alone at her homestead, gave birth to a baby boy.
Brig-Gen Moyo National Hero
Decorated military commander, Brigadier-General Collin Moyo (Retired), who died in Harare last Friday, has been declared a National Hero.
Defence and War Veterans Affairs Minister Cde Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri announced the status at Brig-Gen Moyo (Rtd)’s house in Harare yesterday.
“He has been declared a National Hero. We cannot tell you when he will be buried. We know that he did not die as a result of Covid-19. His burial is different from those who were Covid-19 positive.
“We are expected to have controlled numbers at the burial, so the Ministry of Health and Child Care and the Ministry of Home Affairs and Cultural Heritage will give us advice,” she said.
