A Plumtree man did the unthinkable by assaulting his mother whom he accused of chasing away his wife at her house.
The suspect Evans Ndlovu (32) was found guilty of assault charges when he appeared before Plumtree magistrate Joshua Nembaware.
Nembaware sentenced him to two years in jail, which was conditionally suspended to 420 hours of community service.
Ndlovu told the court that he assaulted his mother, Greater Ndlovu, out of frustration since he was sex-starved after she chased away his wife over some misunderstanding.
"Your worship l assaulted my mother because she chased away my wife now l am sex starved. What is the next move since l no longer have a wife," lamented Ndlovu.
The court heard that on February 22, Ndlovu had a misunderstanding with his mother whom he accused of chasing away his wife.
He became violent and started assaulting her with clenched fists and booted feet.
She managed to escape and sought shelter at her brother’s home.
