Inheritance Wrangle Turns Bloody As Man Axes Brother To Death

An inheritance wrangle between two brothers reportedly turned bloody after the elder brother fatally axed his young brother to death.

Khangelani Sibelo (40) from Gokwe allegedly had a heated dispute with his deceased brother, Sizani Sibelo (30) over who was the rightful heir of their parents’ homestead before he struck him twice with an axe killing him on the spot.

On realizing that he had committed a crime, Khangelani handed himself over to the police.

Midlands provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko confirmed the incident which occurred last week on Friday.

Speaking during an interview with the state media, Inspector Mahoko revealed that upon interrogation, Khangelani indicated that he killed his younger brother because he had challenged him and wanted to evict him from their parent’s homestead while arguing that as the young brother he was the rightful heir to the homestead.

Inspector Mahoko added that Khangelani was expected to appear in court today for initial remand.

In another related incident reported recently by iHarare, a woman from Redcliff strangled her six-year-old stepson to death and locked his eight-year-old sister in a bedroom that she tried to set on fire so that she could inherit her husband’s house.

Alice Chikono, 24, reportedly killed Dean Dube with her bare hands on Easter Friday and hid his body in the house.

She allegedly locked his sister in the bedroom after switching on a stove and covering it with a blanket, apparently hoping the blanket would catch fire and set the room on fire.

She was arrested in Harare where she had fled to and she was arraigned before Kwekwe magistrate Florence Nago facing a murder charge.
