A Chitungwiza woman was robbed by a man she had intended to spend a night with in Mabelreign on Thursday.
Abigail Khumalo (23) of Unit L, Seke, met the unidentified robber in the Harare central business district at around 10pm on Thursday.
The man, whose name Abigail does not know, proposed to her and she accepted.
He convinced her to spend the night with him at his “place” in Mabelreign.
The two took a kombi to Westgate and got off at the Westgate roundabout.
They walked northwards towards the man’s supposed house, and when they got to a secluded place, he grabbed her by the neck from behind and started choking her.
He produced a knife and snatched her belongings and clothes leaving her naked.
She was assisted by a passerby who took her to Avondale Police Station to report the case against her unidentified “new lover”.
Harare provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Luckmore Chakanza, said they were investigating the case and seeking assistance from the public in identifying the robber.
“The unidentified accused person took the complainant’s items, including her clothes and disappeared into the dark,” said Insp Chakanza. H Metro
