Prosper Dembedza Court Reporter
A HARARE woman yesterday begged the Civil Court to grant an order forcing her husband to be intimate with her, saying she was sexually-starved. Tarisai Nyamundaya said her husband Clemence Nyamundaya spent time with girlfriends denying her her conjugal rights. “I want this court to order my husband to come home and be intimate with me because I am now sexually thirsty,” she said.

Tarisai implored magistrate Mr Trevor Nyatsanza to bar Nyamundaya from visiting girlfriends and to attend to her. “I also want the court to bar him from going to his girlfriend’s house so that he can concentrate on me like what he used to do when we got married.”

Nyamundaya absconded court.

Mr Nyatsanza dismissed Tarisai’s application saying the domestic violence court had no jurisdiction to give such orders. He ordered Tarisai and her husband to seek counselling.
