A Bulawayo man must pay $300 after he hurt his wife. The 35-year-old man named Bhekisani Maphosa hit his wife because she went to a party without telling him. He wanted to look at her phone, but she said no.

The judge, Ms Learnear Khumalo, sentenced him to 10 months in jail. Six months will be suspended if he behaves for five years. He can skip the other four months if he pays $300 by March 30.

The hitting happened on February 5 at their house in Entumbane. Maphosa asked his wife, Shamiso George, about a party she went to the day before in Lobengula. They started fighting when he wanted to check her phone. He said he needed to make sure she was faithful.

When she wouldn't let him see her phone, he punched her and hit her with a leather belt all over her body. She didn't need a doctor because she wasn't badly hurt.

In another case, a 30-year-old man from Bulawayo went to jail for 18 months. Charles Gumbo hit his 33-year-old girlfriend, Portia Mutakiwa. He thought she was seeing someone else. They started fighting, and he hit her with a whip and a stick. She didn't need a doctor after the hitting.
