A MBERENGWA self-confessed “wizard” who claimed he can send hyenas and snakes to recover his clients’ debts and can assist criminals evade arrest, has been committed to Mlondolozi Mental Health Prison in Bulawayo.
Sifelani Dube (27) of Gwarimba Village under Chief Chingoma in Mberengwa and his side kick Sorton Shumba (57) of number 424 Mataga Growth Point also in Mberengwa appeared before Zvishavane magistrate Mr Archie Wochiunga last week facing public nuisance and possessing articles for criminal use charges.
Two doctors who have already examined the duo concluded that Shumba was fit to stand trial while Dube was said to be suffering from hallucinations.
“Visual hallucinations with spiritual powers (perceived),” reads a report from one of the doctors who examined Dube.
Mr Wochiunga committed Dube to Mlondolozi Mental Prison and remanded Shumba out of custody to November 29 on free bail.
“Accused one is committed to Mlondolozi Mental Health Prison for further mental examination by doctors. Accused two is remanded out of custody to November 29,” he said.
Prosecutor Mr Amos Ncube told the court that early this month, Dube and Shumba hatched a plan to defraud members of the public and invited a ZBCtv news crew to Gwarimba Village in Mberengwa where Dube publicly announced that he was a wizard who possessed hyenas, owls, baboons and snakes.
