Former Police Commissioner-General Dr Augustine Chihuri has
reached an out of court settlement with his small house, Ms Sithulisiwe
Mthimkhulu who sued him for $240 000 lump sum maintenance.
Dr Chihuri’s mistress through her lawyer Mr Godfrey Nyoni
of Moyo and Nyoni Associates last week revealed that she was failing to serve
him with maintenance summons.
Dr Chihuri, through his lawyer Mr Arthur Marara of
Mutamangira and Associates yesterday petitioned Bulawayo magistrate Miss Sharon Rosemani
to make the matter private as it was attracting “unnecessary” attention to his
client.
Mr Nyoni agreed that the matter should be confidential as
it could also damage the reputation of his client, who is a senior police
officer.
Miss Rosemani granted permission for the case to be heard
confidentially before demanding that third parties vacate the court room. The
Chronicle reports that the parties later reached an agreement.
“By consent parties agreed to meet and do an out of court
settlement and report back on May 14,” read the court papers.
