A 16-YEAR-OLD boy has been assaulting his mother's boyfriend when he appears in the dead of the night to engage in sex with his mother. Guest Muchena, of Takavata Village under Chief Nemangwe in Gokwe, has been assaulting Moses Dlamini with a catapult each time he comes to their village.
Speaking to H-Metro Muchena said, "Dlamini thoroughly bashed my father Jonathan Muchena, 43, three years ago before he forced him to divorce my mum.
"I was young then and he started coming to our house daily where he sometimes beats my mother and younger sisters.
"I tried to talk to my relatives about the abuse but they failed to fix the problem.
"I then resorted to beating him up every time I would see his face in my father's compound.
"The last time he threatened to strike me with an axe if I continued chasing him away, but I am not afraid of him.
"A day before yesterday ndakamurova nerekeni akatominyuka gumbo," said Guest.
The mother Shamiso Mbano, 33, said her husband had since fled his homestead due to assault and threats from her boyfriend.
"I still love my husband Jonathan. Dlamini is just a boyfriend who is fending for my family since my hubby, an artisanal miner, is very irresponsible; he sometimes spends more than three months without coming back home.
"My son started beating Dlamini after he saw him beating me up; so he told him that he doesn't want to see him anywhere near our premises," she said.
H-Metro also caught up with Dlamini who opened up.
"Yes I know Guest as my girlfriend's son but he has never crossed my path at any given time. I am the one taking care of their family. "I am the one who built the house; I am currently paying fees for his two sisters," he said.
