Love triangle 'killer' on the run

POLICE in the Midlands province have launched a manhunt for Melody Ncube Mukwena who allegedly killed a man who had confronted him for allegedly having a love affair with his estranged wife last Saturday night.

Mukwena allegedly killed Ndabezinhle Nkiwane shortly after the latter confronted him in a bar in Amaveni suburb, Kwekwe, for allegedly having sexual relations with his wife while they were on separation.

When Mukwena charged at Nkiwane in the bar, the latter fled from the scene and the suspect gave chase.

Less than an hour later, Nkiwane was found dead with a stab wound in the chest near a local supermarket. Mukwena is a suspect in the murder case.

Midlands Police Spokesperson Inspector Joel Goko confirmed the incident.
