The deceased, a popular motor mechanic from the small Midlands town, has been identified as Senator Mkandawire.
While a police source told Zwnews that Mkandawire was facing rape charges, a close family member said the now deceased was involved in a tiff with a client after the car he was working on was burnt to ashes following a technical fault.
The case was also understood to be at the courts.
