ZIMBABWE: Three Zimbabwean women have appeared in court
charged with indecent assault for a spree of sex attacks on male
hitchhikers and using their victims’ semen for undisclosed rituals,
police said Saturday. “We can confirm that three female and one male
suspect were arrested,” national police spokesman Oliver Mandipaka told
AFP.
“But we cannot speculate or comment further as the case is now before
the courts.”
Sisters Sophie, 26, and Netsai Nhokwara, 24, and Rosemary Chakwizira,
28, were the first suspects to be charged in connection with a string of
sex attacks on men first reported two years ago.
They were arrested together with a man who said he was boyfriend to
one of the women, according to the state-owned Herald newspaper. In
March this year the women sprayed an anaesthetic substance on a
19-year-old after giving him a lift, according to prosecutor Michael
Reza.
“They then allegedly forced the teenager to be intimate with the
three of them using condoms,” The Herald quoted Reza as saying.
“After this, they secured the used condoms containing semen before
leaving him unconscious after spraying the unknown substance at him.”
On August 22, they gave a soldier a lift and forced him to have
unprotected sex with them after threatening to shoot him, the prosecutor
told the court.
In another case, the trio are said to have stopped next to a police
constable, dragged him into their car after pretending to ask for
directions and forced him to have sex with them.
