Media Matimba returned home to an empty house after working in the United Kingdom for 24 years. She claims her son Tawanda sold all her household property without her knowledge. Media brought the matter to the Harare Civil Court. She wants the court to deal with her son, who she says is also verbally abusing her.

Media had been sending money to Tawanda for his upkeep and to take care of the house. When she came back last month, she found the house empty. Tawanda had sold everything, including the pots, spoons, sofas, TV, and some of her clothes. Media is heartbroken. She says everything she worked hard for is gone, including the money she sent him to keep at the house.

Tawanda claimed he sold the property to pay off debts that his mother left behind. He said he was trying to help her clear off some of the debts she left before relocating to the United Kingdom. He didn't mean to cause her any harm.

Magistrate Meenal Naratom ordered Tawanda to return all the items he sold. If he can't return them, he must pay back his mother the equivalent value of the property she lost.
