A fight between illegal miners over a sex worker turned deadly in Mazowe. Two gangs clashed at Nduku Business Center after an initial argument between Gift Machingaife and Terrence Langton, where Langton stabbed Machingaife in the shoulder. Machingaife then rallied his own group of miners, led by Sam Kasinakuse, to retaliate against Langton's crew.
The violent brawl involving logs and knives resulted in the death of John Banda, who was stabbed in the rib cage. Police spokesperson Inspector Milton Mundembe confirmed the murder case, with Banda's body taken to Concession Hospital mortuary. The incident highlights the volatile and often violent disputes plaguing informal mining communities.
