Shortly before the murder, she had a stillbirth that prompted her to return to stay with her parents while recovering from the loss. Chipere allegedly wanted to end their relationship, but Jamu failed to stomach the rejection. After the murder, Jamu inserted Chipere’s body under the bed and locked the door from inside and escaped through the window, taking advantage of her parent’s absence. When the trial opened before High Court Judge, Justice Munamato Mutevedzi, Jamu tried to exonerate himself by submitting that it was difficult for him to stay without Chipere since she was everything in his life. Justice Mutevedzi ruled that it is unfortunate that Jamu’s acts of envy, lust and jealousy resulted in the loss of life and cannot be undone, hence a 15-year jail sentence will send a correct message to would-be offenders. Meanwhile, the minimum age of marriage is 18 years for both girls and boys, according to the Marriages Act. It is, therefore, a crime to marry off a child and anyone involved in that is supposed to be prosecuted. It is a substantial crime if the parents or guardians are involved. *Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
