Prosecutors accuse Mubaiwa of assaulting Munyoro at a Harare school where one of her children was enrolled sometime in 2020.

The state alleges that the attack came after Munyoro denied Mubaiwa – who was separated from Chiwenga at the time – access to the child.

Munyoro alleged that the former model assaulted her using the back of her hand leaving her with a loose tooth which was later removed after she sought medical attention at Parirenyatwa Hospital where she was examined by one Dr Manana. Munyoro recalled:

> I was in the vehicle in the back seat behind the driver and there was Theresa who was seated on my left and the child was seated between us.

> The accused started shouting and she struck me on the left cheek with the back of her hand. I asked her why she was assaulting me when I was looking after her children.

> She then ordered me to disembark and fight her but I refused. She started insulting me saying I’m a witch and that my days are numbered. After the assault, my tooth was loose and there was blood in my mouth. The tooth was later removed.

Under cross-examination by Mubaiwa’s lawyer Beatrice Mtetwa, Munyoro struggled to remember the sequence of events, or explain some details of the attack. Munyoro also:

> i). had no recollection of the number of visits she made to Parirenyatwa Hospital.

> ii). told Mtetwa that she could not remember the name of a private doctor she also consulted, she forgot even the location of the said surgery.

When Mtetwa asked her how she could get injured and have a tooth removed after being assaulted with a hand that was swollen Munyoro then changed her statement, saying it was a ring on Mubaiwa’s left hand that did the damage.

Mtetwa told Munyoro that her story was a fictitious tale she was being made to tell the court by Chiwenga, who is eager to see his ex-wife jailed.

The trial was postponed to March 28.

Chiwenga has filed a series of criminal charges against Mubaiwa, including claims that she attempted to kill him in a South African hospital in 2019.
