An abusive ZRP female police officer based in the country’s oldest city has been arrested and caged on charges of attempted murder after she allegedly struck and injured her husband who is a pastor with a hoe handle. She also left severe injuries on him after scalding the man of God with hot.

The disgraced cop identified as Yvonne Kufakunesu who is based at Masvingo Central allegedly attacked her husband Tachiwei Mutero of Faith Ministries International Church at home in Westonlee in Mashava on Wednesday last week.

He entered the kitchen where he met Kufakunesu who was holding a hoe and she suddenly hit him with it several times on the left leg and the ribs vowing to kill him for reporting the first incident to Police.

Mutero was saved by neighbors who heard him crying out for help. Kufakunesu was granted RTGS$10 000 bail for the first offence.
