One person died and three were injured after a wall collapsed at the community operated Gaika Mine in Kwekwe.

The miners were digging for gold and allegedly using explosives, which weakened the shaft where they were working.

Three of them ended up trapped for a few hours but were rescued by colleagues working nearby while the fatal victim identified as Stenford Machangai, was crushed by a giant rock that had been removed with a hydraulic jack together with his body.
