Briefs: Siblings fight over rentals

News
Murashiwa told the court that Gwenhamo assaulted him recently.

Two Harare siblings are fighting for the right to collect rentals from tenants occupying their late parents’ Glen View 8 house and have approached the courts for recourse.

Hunganayi Gwenhamo told Harare magistrate Sharon Mashavira that Tinotenda Murashiwa ( 26) always travels all the way from Mhondoro to collect the rentals from the tenants and squanders the money on beer.

“Your worship, this man does not stay here in Harare,” Gwenhamo said.

“He comes from Mhondoro every monthend to collect money for rentals and uses it to get drunk.

“When he gets drunk, he starts making noise during the night and that is when I confront him.”

Murashiwa told the court that Gwenhamo assaulted him recently.

“We agreed as the beneficiaries that I will be collecting the rentals as of now but he tried to reprimand me yet he is only a grandchild," Murashiwa said.

Mashavira granted Gwenhamo his plea for a peace order.
