Friday, October 25, 2024 - A Zimbabwean man left a courtroom stunned after admitting he had been urinating and defecating in his bedroom to protest his wife’s alleged denial of conjugal rights.
The unusual case came to light when Maclaren Nduri shared
his frustration with the court, claiming his wife, Berita Mutero, had refused
intimacy since she started working in Mbare—a change he suspects is linked to
her alleged involvement with another man.
Nduri’s behavior, he revealed, was an act of retaliation for
what he sees as neglect. He confessed to the court that Mutero had once
reported him, leading to a 30-day jail sentence for domestic violence. “This
has been going on for some time, and I can’t forgive her for making me go
through this,” Nduri said.
Mutero disclosed more disturbing behavior, stating that
Nduri not only defecates in their bedroom but also assaults her and burns her
clothes in retaliation for her rejection. “I am tired of my husband’s
behavior,” she said. “Sometimes he uses a bucket to relieve himself and leaves
it in the bedroom for days.”
Magistrate Judith Taruvinga, presiding over the case,
recommended that the couple seek professional marital counseling to address
their issues.
