Mubhadho asked Makura for a sip of his Chibuku Super and the latter refused. Mubhadho then grabbed the super from Makura and began drinking it. Mubhadho began assaulting Makura with clenched fists and he pinned him to the ground. Mapasure then allegedly took out an okapi knife from his pocket and stabbed Makura twice on the stomach.

Makura’s mother, Nyasha heard her son’s cry for help and when she arrived, she found him lying on the ground and rushed him to Cheshuro Clinic where he was referred to Masvingo General Hospital.
