According to Harare provincial police spokesperson Inspector Luckmore Chakanza, the incident occurred near a Catholic Church in Kambuzuma Section 5 at approximately 4:45 am on Monday. The couple was approached by the suspects, who had pulled over in a vehicle. One of the assailants confronted the victims and demanded their valuables, while the other two individuals exited the vehicle.
The attackers proceeded to assault Ndaizivei and Denzel, repeatedly striking them with open hands. In fear for their safety, Ndaizivei was compelled to surrender her Huawei cellphone, a satchel containing various clothing items, a plastic dish, and a selection of groceries.
