A Harare man has chased his wife out of their matrimonial home to create room for his girlfriend, the Harare Civil Court heard.

Delicate Chapfudze told his wife, Pamela Mukombe that he was no longer interested in her, but his girlfriend so she should move out of their house.

Mukombe, who was seeking a protection order against Chapfudze, pleaded with magistrate Ms Gamuchirai Siwardi to stop him from chasing her out of the house as she had nowhere to go.

“He is my husband and he is chasing me out of our matrimonial house saying he wants to bring his girlfriend,” she said.

Chapfudze did not deny the allegations. He told the court Mukombe was refusing to be divorced that is why he has resorted to forcefully chasing her out of the house.

Ms Siwardi ordered Chapfudze not to chase Mukombe out of their matrimonial house, but to divorce her customarily if he no longer loves her.
