https://www.pindula.co.zw/2021/12/06/corpse-dumped-at-epworth-midwifes-house/?article

An Epworth man on Sunday dumped the body of his deceased seven-month-old child at a midwife’s home blaming her for causing the death.

Steven Shiri (32), linked the child’s death to the midwife Ndakaziva Mawire (48) who had allegedly threatened to cause the child’s death if she was not paid for her services.

Speaking to H-Metro after he had taken the corpse back to his house from Mawire’s place, Shiri revealed that he had a misunderstanding with Mawire that lasted from the time his wife was pregnant until the day of delivery. He said:

_I sired the child who just died with my second wife and she had a twin brother. They were delivered by Mawire seven months ago._

_Prior to the incident, I had refused to give my second wife money to register at the local clinic because we were having problems._

_So when my wife was now due Mawire offered to help and charged me US$15._

_She wanted to be paid before she did the job and we had a misunderstanding that lasted until the day of delivery._

Shiri accused Mawire of failing to properly deliver the second child since they were twins, resulting in complications. He added:

_After delivering the first child, Mawire failed to notice the second child leaving her untrained aide to pull the second child by her hands before pushing her back in again._

_I immediately noticed that something went wrong during the delivery and it was evident on the child’s arms which could not bend._

_A few days after the birth, I asked Mawire to accompany my wife to the hospital when my daughter’s arms became swollen._

_She refused to go to the hospital as a witness and the doctors also said the child required an operation but only when she had grown up._

_Mawire demanded more money for the extra child she did not expect to deliver, I told her I had paid her enough._

_She then told me kuti ndichazviona zvichaitika kumwana since ndange ndaramba kumubhadhara imwe mari yaaida. [that I will see what will befall the child since I had refused to pay the additional fee that she had demanded]._

Shiri said on Saturday evening, he paid Mawire US$15 but the child died the following morning.

However, Mawire denied ever causing the death. She said Shiri brought the corpse to her home and when she tried to escape, he manhandled and assaulted her.

She said she managed to escape and reported the matter to Epworth Police.

Mawire told H-Metro that she has been a midwife for the past 18 years and is licensed by the Traditional Medical Practitioners Council.
