“I am not in love with her husband. I only came to know him when he sold some shoes to me on credit.Eversince l paid those shoes l never saw him again” she added.

Gomo repeatedly accusing Madzime of being in love with the father of her children despite the explanations she had given.

“I discovered the affair in January, but l kept quiet. I could not confront her because l did not have enough evidence. However the truth came out when one of her best friends told me everything” said Gomo.

Gomo refused beating Madzime saying she only stripe her naked because a prostitute should not be beaten, but should put to shame.

‘’I did not beat her. Why should I beat her? , a prostitute should be striped naked to put to shame.” She boasted.

Harare spokes person Inspector James Sabau said Gomo and two of her accomplices who partook I stripping Madzime have since paid $10 admission of guilty fines.
