A Harare magistrate ordered three adult sons to vacate their 79-year-old mother's residence and cease harassment after she secured a protection order. Faina Bhera testified that her married sons refused to leave her Mufakose home despite having their own families, routinely returning intoxicated and disrupting her peace. Their presence blocked her efforts to rent rooms for income, leaving her unable to afford necessities.

Bhera told the court she needed tenant payments to buy food, explaining how her sons' resistance trapped her in financial distress. The magistrate ruled decisively in her favor, barring Edson, Simon, and Morris Mususwa from the property and prohibiting further intimidation. This judgment grants Bhera legal protection after enduring prolonged domestic turmoil at the hands of her children.

The case highlights vulnerabilities faced by elderly Zimbabweans dealing with familial conflicts over housing. Bhera's successful petition demonstrates accessible legal remedies for seniors experiencing abuse from relatives. Authorities encourage victims of domestic harassment to seek similar court interventions when family mediation fails.
