(Crime): A Judge Committed Suicide in Church after Killing Wife and Raping her Corpse in front of their Kids

In Zimbabwe, a judge who was declared wanted by the police over the brutal murder of his wife has reportedly killed himself in a church. The now deceased Judge, Evans Zinzombe, 36, had been on the run from the police after he allegedly killed his wife, Pholomina Mabika, 32, on Wednesday, December 7, 2022.

He reportedly strangled Phelomina to death with his bare hands and went on to rape her corpse in front of their children; a 12-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son.

A police spokesperson, Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi who declared the Judge wanted said, “The Zimbabwe Republic Police is appealing for information which may lead to the arrest of Judge Evans Zinzombe (36), who is being sought in connection with a case of murder which occurred on 7th December, 2022 at a house in Cowdray Park in Bulawayo".

The police statement further said, “The suspect allegedly sneaked into the room where his wife Pholomina Mabika (32), daughter (12) and a son (7) were before strangling her to death with hands. The suspect and his wife were reportedly having marital disputes which forced them to sleep in separate rooms”.

According to the police, after the callous murder, the suspect allegedly went on to sexually abuse the body in full view of his children. The children spent the whole night with the body before a police report was made in the morning.

After days of man hunt for him, Judge Evans Zinzombe’s body was discovered hanging from the roof of a church in Bulawayo’s Cowdray Park suburb.
