Recently deported MDC-T UK youth leader Try Mahachi on Monday allegedly went crazy and assaulted his wife and her lawyer destroying property in the lawyer's office in the process.

Mahachi who later ganged up with his mother and four other relatives to continue assaulting the lawyer, Lison Ncube, went on to beat up a client who waiting at the reception.

Mahachi has been charged with malicious damage to property after he destroyed furniture valued $1,500.

He reportedly lost his mind when he found his wife, Marvelous, pregnant upon being deported from UK in February.

She had filed for divorce against him in 2012 after claiming he abandoned her in 2008 when he was granted political asylum in UK.

At a meeting to discuss the divorce in Ncube's office, Mahachi reportedly went ballistic and called his wife a b****.

He went on to spit on her twice, forcing lawyers to postpone discussions.

According to a police report, Mahachi strangled Ncube and slammed him against a wall, before slamming his wife onto a conference room table, wrestling style, destroying the table.

A witness said: "His relatives including his mother who were waiting at the reception joined in beating up the lawyer. A client who was waiting at the reception got caught in the crossfire and Ncube attacked him as well."

Ncube confirmed the attack saying Mahachi will appear in court on Thursday.

According to police records, Mahachi and his mother Chengetai Mahachi signed affidavits admitting the assaults and paid admission of guilt fines.

Acting Bulawayo police spokesperson Assistant Inspector Abedinico Ncube confirmed the incident.
