A woman has been forced to make a shocking confession how she slept with her husband's brother and got infected with a sexually transmitted disease.
A married Zimbabwean woman has confessed before a court after sleeping with her husband's brother. She further revealed that the husband's brother also infected her with sexually transmitted disease.
The drama took place at the Civil Court yesterday when Shylet Matoneni made an application for access to her child, who is currently in the custody of her brother-in-law Kenneth Nyaguma.
NewsDay gathered that Matoneni had indicated that after her husband left for the United States in 2010, her in-laws chased her from her matrimonial home.
“They forced me to sign off my child to them yet they never paid my bride price nor met any of my relatives,” Matoneni said.
She revealed that after the huband traveled abroad, one of his brothers started making love advances at her.
“I used to resist his advances, but one night he came and managed to manipulate me into having s*x with him and infected me with an STI,’’ she said.
Nyaguma opposed the application saying Matoneni was an unfit mother who was not even welcome at their home. He alleged Matoneni had turned into a prostitute after her husband left the country, adding for the few days that she had lived with the child she exposed him to different types of men.
Nyaguma said Matoneni had initially dumped the baby claiming she had nowhere to stay. Presiding magistrate Gamuchirai Siwardi will pass her judgment later.
