A Kwekwe woman refused to sleep with her husband after he
fathered a child with another woman.
Tawanda Majoni and Chiedza Juma have been married for 10
years and have no children together. When Juma found out that he had cheated
and fathered a child, she took the tough decision to deny him conjugal rights.
He flew into a rage and thrashed her.
“I could not afford to put my life at risk by sleeping with
my husband when I knew he had indulged in unprotected sex with another woman.
In this day of sexually transmitted diseases like HIV, I felt unsafe to sleep
with him. He started beating me on several occasions and when I couldn’t take
it anymore, I reported the matter to the police,” Juma told the court.
Majoni was sentenced to eight months in prison.
