A 24-year-old woman from Buhera, Manicaland Province, has been arrested for murder after she crushed her two-month-old babyβs head against a rock and killed him during a prayer session.
The woman, Mary Rukobo, from Mashangana Village in the Muzokomba area in Buhera said she heard a voice instructing her to kill her two children, including the now-deceased, while she was engaged in prayer.
Police said the matter came to light after Rukobo confessed the murder to some villagers. Police said in a statement:
