A Zimbabwean man landed in the dock last Wednesday after he exhumed a woman’s remains from a cemetery.
The suspect Pinky Bhekeshita was not asked to plead when he appeared before Harare magistrate Isheanesu Matova.
The state applied to proceed in terms of the Mental Health Act after Bhekheshita claimed to have exhumed his mother’s remains yet it was Jacqueline Mbewe’s remains who was not related to him.
Bhekheshita was found in possession of the remains and is threatening to exhume the remains of his other relatives at Zinyengere Cemetery.
The unidentified man caused a scene early this week scaring mourners who were burying their dead nearby.
