knife attack stabbing

A 20-year old man has been arrested for stabbing his father to death after an altercation over money before cutting off his private part.

Basilio Simbi a native of Glen Norah in Zimbabwe was said to have stabbed his father Olisidio Simbi several times before cutting off his genitals to make it look like a ritual murder.

Deputy Police assistant commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed the report according to iharare.com.

”I can confirm that I received the report of a murder case where a body was found without private parts.

“We are still conducting investigations on what transpired because there were no blood stains at the scene of a murder. Investigations are still in progress,” Mr Nyathi said.

An eyewitness said that Basilio killed his father on Wednesday morning and spent the whole day with the corpse inside the house before dumping the naked body the next morning.

“He had altercation with his father over money. He said he wanted the money his father had and azobuditsa 100 bond. They had a quarrel inside the house on Tuesday night and all blankets were stained with blood,” the source said.

The matter was brought to light after neighbours saw bloodstained blankets which Basilio washed to erase traces of the murder.

The suspect was arrested at the crime scene when he returned to collect his clothes in an attempt to take flight.

Basilio confessed to the crime during interrogation by police officers, saying that he used knives to cut off his father’s genitals.

The suspect led detectives to the Glen Norah Community Hall where he had hidden the knives he used to kill his father.
