RUSAPE shoppers were recently treated to free movie two business partners-cum lovers, Barnabas Nemaire and Gladys Svosve were involved in a street fight, resulting in the former being detained overnight.
Police confirmed the fight and arrest of Nemaire, who was later released after Svosve dropped the charges against him.
Witnesses said the scuffle, which happened at Svosve's Greysteam Clinic in full view of her employees and also drew the attention of hordes of passers-by was over computers which Nemaire wanted to repossess from Svosve.
It is alleged that Nemaire was claiming that he was the one who bought the computers for Svosve and wanted to take them, but she would have none of it.
As the situation was getting out of hand, Svosve allegedly sped off to lodge a theft of computers complaint at Rusape Central Police Station, leading to Nemaire's arrest. Nemaire spent a night in police cells.
However, Svosve later withdrew the charges on Sunday morning, resulting in Nemaire's release.
Rusape District police spokesperson Assistant Inspector Muzondiwa Clean said Svosve had laid a charge of theft against Nemaire, but later withdrew it.
"Yes, I can confirm that Gladys Svosve laid a charge of theft of computers against Barnabas Nemaire last Saturday. He was arrested and detained overnight but Gladys Svosve later withdrew the charges and Nemaire was released," said Asst Insp Clean.
The two were later spotted in Rusape on Monday in Svosve's car, which was being driven by her daughter. When contacted for comment on last Saturday's scuffle, Svosve vehemently denied ever fighting with Nemaire or making a police report.
"Who told you that nhaiwe Lovemore? You are lying, nothing happened. There was nothing like that. "The people who told you that were sending you on a wild goose chase. They are malicious. Please don't quote my name when you write your story. I never reported any case against Nemaire, where is the docket? Inga wani Nemaire waved you when we were together, so ndakamusungisa papi?'' said Svosve
