A 60-YEAR-OLD widowed Harare woman has confronted Home Affairs Minister Kazembe Kazembe with a $3,1 million lawsuit following the fatal shooting of her now late husband by police in 2018.
Lucy Nhamo’s husband Zephaniah Nhamo, a newspaper vendor then, was fatally shot by one Onias Muzanenhamo at the Seke Flyover.
Nhamo said if her husband was still alive, he would have been providing $20 000 for her per month but the support has been lost because of his death.
“On February 22 2018, the defendant during the course of his employment and whilst serving his duties as a police officer and on behalf of Kazembe, Police Commissioner General Godwin Matanga and Officer Commanding Harare Province, cited as first to third respondents, wrongfully and negligently killed Zephaniah Nhamo at Zeke Flyover by shooting him,” read the summons in part.
