A 19-YEAR-OLD woman will spend the next six months in jail for scalding her lover's private parts as punishment for cheating on her.
Sihle Moyo of Figtree area in Bulilima poured boiling water on Englum Nyoni, 23, who is also from the same area on January, 1, after he made her sleep on the floor while he entertained another woman on the bed.
Moyo went to Nyoni's homestead with the intention of spending the night there at around 8PM, but found him with another woman.
Nyoni introduced the woman as his new girlfriend and ordered Moyo to sleep on the floor while the two occupied the bed.
This did not go down well with Moyo, but she complied.
On the following morning, she boiled some water and poured it on the boyfriend's manhood while he was still in bed.
Moyo pleaded guilty when she appeared before Plumtree magistrate, Livard Philemon facing physical abuse charges.
The magistrate sentenced her to nine months imprisonment and suspended three months on condition that she does not commit a similar offence within five years.
Prosecuting, Clemence Shawarira said Moyo found her lover with another woman on New Year's Day and the man told her that he had a new girlfriend.
"The complainant told Moyo upon her arrival that he was now in love with another woman and ordered her to leave his house. Moyo insisted on staying and pointed out that she needed a place to sleep as it was dark for her to return to her home," said Shawarira.
He said Nyoni agreed to accommodate Moyo who slept on the floor while he shared the bed with his new girlfriend.
He added that the man sustained severe burns and was referred to United Bulawayo Hospital where he was treated and discharged after Moyo poured boiling water on his manhood.
In mitigation, Moyo told the court that she was pushed by her cheating lover into committing the crime, but was now regretting it.
She said she was not aware that her lover was planning to dump her as he had always, professed undying love for her.
"I was very angry at the way that the complainant treated me when I got to his home and all I wanted to do was to punish him. I wanted to turn his manhood into a useless organ which he would not even use on the woman that he left me for," said Moyo.
