A HEARTBROKEN man allegedly turned nasty on his ex-partner, and threatened to kill her and her family, a court heard.

Nomazulu Khumalo from Gadadi Village in Ntabazinduna, Matabeleland North province, claimed her ex-lover, Mike Moyo’s threats were causing sleepless nights for her and her family.

Khumalo, who was seeking a protection order against her ex-lover at the Bulawayo Civil Court said she was now living in extreme fear for her safety because Moyo had been continuously threatening her and her family since April this year.

“Mike Moyo is my ex-boyfriend. He comes to my home almost every day to verbally and physically abuse and threaten me. I am no longer living in peace as he threatens to kill me saying I’m a prostitute. He once came to my house armed with an axe and knife and beat me up.

“He is also stalking me and whenever he sees me, he beats me up and sometimes he ambushes me on the road. I am now living in fear that he will kill me and I’m kindly asking the court to protect me by granting a protection order against him,” begged Khumalo.

She said so daring was her ex-lover that he comes to her place to destroy her property.

Moyo didn’t refute his ex-girlfriend’s accusations leading Bulawayo magistrate Marygold Ndlovu to grant an order in Khumalo’s favour.

The magistrate ordered Moyo not to threaten, verbally and physically abuse his ex-lover and not to go to her house.
