Wife takes hubby's underwear to prophet

A Harare man was granted a protection order against his wife after accusing her of taking his underwear to prophets and threatening to poison him.

Columbus Chijoko told Civil Court magistrate Lazini Ncube last week that he was now scared to eat at home because of the threats by Alice Takawira (53).

Chijoko said his wife was also in the habit of insulting him at his workplace and assaulting him in front of their children.

However, Takawira claimed her husband applied for the protection order to stop her from questioning him about an alleged extra-marital affair.

She said she was tipped off by Chijoko's workmates that he was having an affair with a colleague.
