Police in Mashonaland East have arrested Memory Choga (41) from Jeche Primary School in Sadza, following the death of her husband, Douglas Choga (45), a teacher at the same school. The arrest came after Choga allegedly murdered her husband during an argument over money.
It is reported that Douglas Choga had transferred his salary from his bank account to his EcoCash wallet without informing his wife.
