A MAN, who was recently released from prison after seven years, arrived home to find out that his wife has married another man.
He claims he is now being barred from seeing child.
Luckson Marowa, 36, of Rusape claims that his in-laws have been blocking him from seeing his 10-year-old child.
The child was only two when he was imprisoned.
He came home to find that his wife, Plaxedes Mushayavanhu, 32, was now married to another man while his child has not been attending school.
“I was jailed for transporting stolen goods and sentenced to 10 years,” said Luckson.
“I served almost seven years and was released two months ago.
“My in-laws have been denying me access to my child and the child has not been attending school.
“My wife took everything, returned to her parents and was given to marriage to another man.
“I am yet to find a job but my in-laws are demanding money for looking after my family during my incarceration.”
He added:
“Ndangandaiwana nguvai mari iyi, inyadzi here dzekuti vakaroodza mudzimai wangu?
“I do not have a grudge about her marriage since it has been a long time but my issue is about my child’s right to education as well as access to both parents.
“My relatives have been willing to help me in taking the child to school but my in-laws stoned them when they visited,” said Luckson.
Plaxedes told H-Metro that she left the child in the custody of her parents when she got married to another man.
“I got married to another man,” said Plaxedes.
“I heard that Luckson was released from jail and visited my parents.
“He wanted the child but he had a misunderstanding with my parents .
“The child is under my parents and I do not think they are against giving him access to the child.
“Vabereki vangu havana pfuma yavakadya yake uye vakamuchengetera mwana wake arimuhusungwa,” said Plaxedes.
Plaxedes’ mother, Esther Masunga, said:
“Luckson came here and we demanded our lobola as well as money for looking after his family while he was in prison,” said Esther.
“Mwana wake ndichamukwidza bhazi aende zvake agare naye zvachose nekuti haatendi.
“If his bitterness is about his wife who got married, he must know his boundaries.
“He is abusing me and I am not happy at all.
“I am a church member ndikamutsanyira hazvimuiitire zvakanaka, he must know that.
“He is not thankful at all,” she said. (@H-Metro)
