Wellington Zimbiti of house number 2834 Aerodrome, pleaded guilty when he appeared

months’ imprisonment.
Nyasha Mhonda for the Prosecution submitted that on 13 November Zimbiti and the
complainant, Shalom Madungwe (21) were sleeping at their place of residence when Zimbiti
asked her to have sex.

This did not go well with Zimbiti, who then became angry and started beating up his wife
