A Bulawayo woman - Charity Sibanda sustained serious injuries after being stabbed with a broken glass by her hubby for talking to strangers.

Sibanda was also banned from venturing outside the house alone without the company of his boyfriends - Nkukuleko Nyathi.

Sibanda was in court last week seeking a protection order.

"Your worship, Nkululeko is my boyfriend but he is failing to prove that because he does not allow me to leave my place. She wants me to be always home, he tells me that if I go outside I will end up socialising with bad people.

"He is abusive and treats me as if I am living at his own house because he tells me to remain in the house at the time.

"Whenever I invite friends he chases them away especially if he does not know them. I have tried to talk to him nicely about stopping his bad behaviour but he gets angry at me and destroys my property. Last week he cut me with a glass on my head. I do not like it when he comes to abuse me and I want him to stop coming to my place of residence" said Sibanda before magistrate Evelyn  Mashavakure.

Nyathi did not attend the court session.
