A man in his thirties in Zimbabwe has died during a sεxual intercourse with his talented lover.

Copperbelt police chief Charity Katanga said the incident happened on Thursday around 10.00 hours and identified the dead man as Johnstone Phiri while the woman is Mary Mwamba.

Ms Katanga said Mr Phiri complained that his heart was beating at a faster rate and he died immediately after a lengthy first round.

“The woman came all the way from Luwingu to visit her lover. So on the material day, they were having sεx and Mr Phiri complained that his heart was beating too fast and that he had a headache. I’m told it was during the first round when he dropped dead. Mwamba is in custody being interrogated over this death,” Ms Katanga said.

She said police have since apprehended Mwamba and that she is being questioned over Mr Phiri’s death.

The body is Mpongwe mission hospital mortuary.
