Alexius Manyanda faces remand custody after legal proceedings initiated by his estranged wife, prominent Harare attorney Nyasha Pamella Timba. Timba serves as managing partner at Devittie, Rudolph & Timba Legal Practitioners and received the Outstanding Advocate and Legal Leader of the Year platinum award during the 2019 Megafest Women Awards. Courts ordered Manyanda to provide US$8,020 for educational expenses covering application fees, tuition payments, and specialized therapy costs for their children. He violated these financial obligations and remains in arrears for the required support payments. Bail considerations will determine his immediate legal status during the upcoming court proceedings.
Additional charges against Manyanda stem from alleged violations of protective orders and threatening behavior toward Timba. Prosecutors claim he physically confronted her at the ZRP Borrowdale charge office by forcefully pushing her hand while she held a mobile device. The confrontation escalated when he verbally threatened her safety and claimed police protection through monetary payments. Previous court orders had specifically prohibited such physical and verbal abuse against the attorney. These combined violations resulted in his weekend detention and pending legal proceedings.
