Seventy eight year old Benjamin Harry stands accused of fatally assaulting his son Kudakwashe Harry after the younger man reportedly came home and found his father with his 22 year old wife Evelyn Mashava. What started as a heated argument quickly turned tragic when Benjamin allegedly picked up an iron bar and struck his son who did not survive the blows.

In the chaotic aftermath, authorities say Benjamin turned to Evelyn’s brothers, 18 year old Tongai Mavhurume and a 16 year old minor, for help. Reports suggest he offered livestock as compensation while the group tried to make the death look like suicide but Police soon saw through the staging and launched a full investigation.
Seven people now sit in custody: Benjamin, Evelyn, her brothers, and three others Mike Hwata (36), William Grasham (34), and 18 year old Perfect Vembo. All were remanded under case number Kadoma Rural 27/1/26. A post mortem confirmed severe head injuries consistent with being struck by a heavy object.
