A 25-year-old murder suspect, Tshimangadzo Rasiluma, appeared in the Tshilwavhusiku Magistrate’s Court last Friday.
His case was postponed to 23 October for further investigation. Residents of Madombidzha and neighbouring villages arrived in a bus in a bid to oppose the possibility of the suspect's being granted bail.
In an incident that shocked the whole of Vhembe District, Rasiluma allegedly approached his girlfriend, Glenda Radzilani, on her way to work and assaulted her on 31 July. He then dragged her to her home, where he is alleged to have assaulted and stabbed her multiple times. Two minors and Glenda’s sister were in the house, hiding and fearing for their lives.
