Constable Thembekile Ndebele, an officer at Bulawayo Central Police Station, was reportedly assaulted by her husband, George Muchineripi, following accusations of infidelity. The incident took place at their home in Nkulumane suburb.
According to reports, Muchineripi confronted Ndebele with claims that she was involved in an extramarital affair, allegedly based on information from a family member. In a fit of anger, Muchineripi reportedly punched Ndebele in the head and face, causing her to bleed from her lower lip. Despite her pleas and screams for help, he continued the assault until Ndebele was able to flee to a bedroom and lock herself inside. Neighbors, alerted by the commotion, intervened and managed to stop the attack.
Following the incident, Ndebele sought help by reporting the assault to Nkulumane Police Station. However, responding officers were unable to locate Muchineripi at their residence. The Bulawayo Provincial Spokesperson was unavailable for comment on the matter, and efforts to contact the couple for further details were unsuccessful. The case highlights ongoing issues of domestic violence and the challenges faced by victims in seeking protection and justice.
