Chiweshe man axes miner after stealing gold ore

Authorities in Bindura are holding Giveus Bhangini after he allegedly attacked a mine worker with an axe during an early morning theft at Stories mine in Mazowe. Regional magistrate Elisha Singano remanded the suspect on attempted murder charges following the incident that left Munyaradzi Kenani with severe head injuries.

Prosecutor Clever Nyapfani told the court that Bhangini had taken gold ore from the mining site when Kenani spotted him carrying stolen material and gave chase. The accused initially ran before stopping to retrieve an axe and striking his pursuer on the head, causing a deep wound. The case continues as investigators gather evidence against Bhangini.
