AN 18-year-old man from Ntunjambili Village in Matobo District, Matebeleland South Province reportedly ran amok and threatened to kill his mother before setting her hut ablaze and went on to destroy household property with an axe.
The man - Mbizo Collen Dube's savage act came barely a month after he destroyed his neighbour's 2 000 bricks, uprooted her vegetable and tomato plants and also harvested maize cobs in the garden.
He was arraigned before Kezi magistrate Mr Busani Sibanda on Wednesday last week facing four charges that include malicious damage to property and physical abuse.
Dube pleaded guilty to the charges, but Mr Sibanda remanded him in custody to Thursday for sentencing.
