An 18-year-old student has been arrested in connection with the abduction of his 10-year-old neighbour with the intention of using him for money rituals in Masvingo, Zimbabwe.
The young boy, named Tawana,
disappeared for three days, only to be found after a police investigation led
to the arrest of the suspect, a Form 4 student at Vision Academy, identified as
Peter.
Peter admitted during a police
interrogation that he had planned to take Tawana to clients in Chipinge, who
had requested the child’s head for ritual purposes.
In a disturbing confession,
Peter said; “When I took this child, they had told me to find a head and bring
it.”
The confession, recorded on
video, shows Tawana’s grandmother wailing in the background as the child’s
mother, filled with shock and rage, confronts the suspect. She demands answers
from Peter, questioning his motives.
''So, you wanted to sacrifice
my child? Peter, did you really plan to do this? What did Tawana do to you?
What did we do to deserve this? You have no shame!"
In the same video, Tawana’s mother also reprimands her son for ignoring warnings about befriending older individuals like Peter,"Tawana, you hear what your friend was up to? We always warned you not to play with this older guy. Look what he wanted to do—he wanted to get you killed." she said.
The video ends abruptly, but
the incident has left the local community in shock, raising concerns about the
safety of children and the people parents trust with their well-being.
