A PUBLIC prosecutor was arrested yesterday for allegedly assaulting his lover who had decided to terminate their relationship.
Blessing Tawanda Nyandoro was arrested for assaulting his girlfriend Mitchel Mudzongachisvo, who is a mother of one.
Mitchel told H-Metro that Nyandoro had been physically assaulting her after she decided to end their relationship.
“I could not stomach being abused daily and I decided to move away from our relationship,” said Mitchel.
“I lodged a police report against him recently and withdrew the case after he promised to make peace with me.
“He went on to assault me and this time I saw it was best for justice to take its course.
“He brags of being connected since he is a public prosecutor,” said Mitchel.
The other case, which Mitchel filed against Nyandoro before withdrawing it, was reported under IR 070090.
Harare provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Luckmore Chakanza, could not be reached for comment by the time of going to print yesterday.
However, H-Metro sources said Nyandoro was detained at Harare Central Police Station and is expected to appear in court today.
Nyandoro made headlines sometime in May 2022 for assaulting his married girlfriend after their separation.
Deria Zimbodza (42), who was the married lover, said she was assaulted by Nyandoro at a city hotel along Samora Machel Avenue in Harare.
She claimed she had told him about her plans to end their relationship.
Their fracas ended at Harare Central Police Station where the two received counselling.
Nyandoro confirmed exchanging blows with Zimbodza in a hotel room at a time she was yet to end her marriage with Pedzisai Zimbodza.
