A Zimbabwean woman was on Monday stripped, assaulted, and forced to drink sewage by three women who accused her of dating a married mechanic.

According to H-Metro, the woman only identified as Mai Anesu was confronted by one Mai Gatsi over love messages she discovered in her husband Gatsi’s mobile phone.

“It is true that I was attacked by three women accusing me of dating one of the women’s husbands who is a mechanic at our shopping centre,” said Mai Anesu.

“I took the matter to police because I was seriously injured that I am nursing bruises suffered from the attack and they forced me to drink sewage from the toilet.

“My legs are still in pain and I am receiving medication.

“They accused me of cheating with Gatsi and I am yet to return to my house following the incident because the humiliation attracted a crowd calling me names.

“Please do not further harm me by publishing the story. I can give you Gatsi’s contact number and seek his permission to publish the story first,” said Mai Anesu.

Mai Gatsi and her two hired women were arrested over the assault and the case is being handled at a local police station.

According to the publication, the three could not be reached to give their side of the story.

However, Gatsi confirmed the incident saying Mai Gatsi stole his mobile phone and quickly suspected his illicit affair with Mai Anesu leading to the attack.

“I cannot say much since the case is now being handled by police but I was informed that the woman was not seriously injured as reported,” said Gatsi.
