Zimbabwean police have arrested 35-year-old Geviza Fadzai for allegedly stabbing her three-year-old daughter to death in Village 2, Fair Range, Mkwasine, on 25 November 2025.

According to the Zimbabwe Republic Police, the child was stabbed in the neck with a knife, and investigators believe the mother committed the horrific act because she wanted to marry a new boyfriend who refused to accept a woman with a child.

After the killing, police say Fadzai attempted to mislead the community by giving multiple false accounts of what happened. She reportedly told a neighbour that four unidentified attackers had assaulted the child. She later went to the village head and claimed her daughter had died from natural causes.

The truth began to surface during burial preparations when a deep cut was discovered on the girl’s neck. A concerned individual reported the matter to ZRP Mkwasine, triggering a full investigation. The victim’s body was taken to Chiredzi General Hospital for a post-mortem examination.

Even though it is still alleged. But I want to ask, can once choose a boyfriend over her own child? I refuse to believe that is the cause because it sounds impossible. V

That could be a cruel act of a mother killing her 3-year-old child, helpless and innocent. Dhe better had sent her child to the orphanage or to her family rather than killing her because of her affair with a man who does not like to support her child. That was an insane decision.

The story of Mkwasine is very sad as a mother named Geviza Fadzai was arrested by the police after stabbing her three-year-old child. Police say she did it because she wanted to marry a new boyfriend who did not want a woman with a child. After the incident, she tried to deceive the community by saying that attackers attacked the child and later claimed that the child died of natural causes. The truth came to light during the funeral preparations when they saw a large wound on the neck. Then someone reported it to ZRP Mkwasine and an investigation officially began. The body was taken to the hospital for post mortem. Tragic.
