Wife accuses police husband of sexual, emotional abuse

A Bulawayo-based police officer identified as Albert Nyika allegedly choked his wife, Zanele Dube, before dousing her private part with an unspecified poisonous substance.

Zanele revealed that she walked out of her marriage saying she was a victim of her husband’s verbal, physical, emotional and sexual abuse.

She also claimed she suffered a miscarriage after Albert viciously kicked her bulging stomach. It was Albert’s constant abuse that forced her to walk out of the marriage.

Albert also poured a poisonous substance into her private parts, the Bulawayo Civil Court in Zimbabwe where Dube was seeking a protection order against him heard.

“I am the applicant in this matter. The respondent Albert Nyika is my ex-husband and is of a violent nature. During the subsistence of our marriage, he was in the habit of verbally and physically assaulting me.

“Sometime in June 2016 he insulted and assaulted me. He also kicked me in the stomach knowing full well that I was pregnant and as a result, I suffered a miscarriage. He also choked me using his gym equipment before he poured a poisonous substance into my private parts.

“As if that was not enough, on November 28, that same year he sexually abused me. It is then my prayer, that if this application is not considered as a matter of urgency he might permanently injure or kill me” said Dube.

In response, Nyika disputed his ex-wife’s accusations saying she was only after tarnishing his image.

“All the allegations she has levelled against me are not true. After our separation, I was not even communicating with her and I am surprised why she is saying I am abusing her. She is only after tarnishing my image. I don’t have any problem even if the application is granted in her favour since I am not abusing her,” he said

In his judgment, the presiding magistrate Tinashe Tashaya ordered Nyika not to verbally, physically and sexually abuse his ex-wife as well as not to communicate with her or visit her place.
