Woman bashed for bedding her next door neighbour's husband

RESIDENTS in Glen Norah C Extension were treated to free drama yesterday when a woman was thoroughly bashed by a gang of relatives for bedding her next door neighbour's husband. Delani Dhlakama was thrashed by her neighbour only identified as Mai Taurai Junior of House No. 9226 Glen Norah after she was caught red-handed having sex with the latter's husband, Taurai Kaitano.

It was said that Taurai sneaked out of his house on Saturday night and visited his girlfriend's house. "Rumours about the two's relationship had been doing rounds for sometime. Taurai's wife had been also suspecting that her husband was cheating on her with their next door neighbour.

"It was on Saturday night that the relationship came to light when Taurai sneaked out of his house and went straight into his girlfriend's arms next door. "He spent a long time there which forced his wife to track him and she caught them having a nice time between the sheets.

"We heard that the two were watching porn and it appears as if they were getting sex lessons from the video clips," said Taurai's close relative who preferred anonymity. Irked by what she had seen Mai Taurai Junior is reported to have walked out of her matrimonial home that night and went to her parents' house in the same neighbourhood.

"Mai Taurai Junior just walked out without saying a word. She just told other relatives what she had witnessed and her intentions to quit the marriage. "It was today (yesterday) when we decided to confront Taurai's girlfriend and ask her about her relationship with Taurai.

"Plus what annoyed us is the fact that this Delani lives just next door and we never expected such behaviour from her. "We then ganged up and beat her up. She was lucky that she managed to board a kombi and escape from us. We could have beaten her to death," said the relative furiously.

The unfortunate Delani is said to have been half-naked by the time she dived into the kombi. It was said that Taurai's relatives had stripped her naked tearing her clothes as they beat her. "She was almost naked when she jumped into the kombi," an onlooker quipped in. But her friend who tried to restrain Taurai's rioting relatives bore the brunt of the livid mob.

"Delani's friend was stoned on the eye when she tried to intervene and she fled the scene of the incident bleeding profusely," said the relative. The spineless Taurai took to his heels when his wife and other relatives went to confront Delani.

He was reported to have gone into hiding after the soup hit the fan! Taurai's father in-law barred Mai Taurai from entertaining reporters. "We gain nothing from talking to you. We are busy looking for my son in-law so that he will explain this mess and you want her to talk to you. "No. I won't allow her to talk to you," he said with finality.
