Prostitute bites off regular client's penis over payment

A Zimbabwean man, Brain Shumba (32) was critically injured on Monday when he had a chunk of his penis bitten off by a prostitute he had hired following a row over payment for services she had rendered. Brain Shumba of Hoffman Street, Mambo suburb, is admitted at Gweru Provincial Hospital. Sources said Mr Shumba fell unconscious immediately after the head of his erect male organ was bitten off by the accused lady of the night. They said he only regained consciousness some hours later after he was admitted at Gweru Provincial Hospital. Police confirmed the incident which occurred on Monday night and the subsequent arrest of the suspect, Wadzanai Marimo (34) of number 94/2 in Mtapa suburb.

Acting Police spokesperson for Midlands province, Assistant Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko could, however, not immediately give finer details of the matter. He said he was still to get the details from Mtapa Police Station where the assault case was reported. "I can confirm the arrest of a 34-year-old woman from Mtapa who bit her boyfriend's male organ but we are still to get full details from the relevant station," he said. Sources within the police, however, said the two "lovebirds" were enjoying a drink at Mahari night club in Mambo suburb when they later decided to go to Marimo's lodgings. "The two know each other very well and Shumba is a regular client of Wadzanai Marimo. On the fateful day, they spent the better part of the night drinking at Mahari night club in Mambo before they agreed to go and put up at Marimo's house," said the source.



The source said the two were later involved in a scuffle while at Marimo's place when Shumba allegedly declined to pay after having sex with the accused. "Shumba told Wadzanai that he would pay her some other day. He argued that there was no point in her worrying over payment since he was a regular client," said the source. The source said this did not go down well with Marimo who then pretended to have understood Mr Shumba's position. But she later bit off the head of Mr Shumba's manhood before she bolted out of the room with the piece in her mouth. "She is said to have spit the piece outside," said the source. The source said Mr Shumba fell unconscious and was rushed to Gweru Provincial Hospital where he regained consciousness some hours later.

"Mr Shumba is still admitted at Gweru Hospital and the accused is in police custody assisting the police in their investigations," said the source. Marimo was yesterday arraigned before Gweru magistrate, Ms Florence Nago, facing an assault charge. She pleaded guilty to the charge and the case quickly proceeded to trial. Marimo was remanded in custody to await sentencing. The court was left in stitches when Mr Shumba, who had to be taken from his hospital bed to give evidence, told the court that he did not immediately react when he felt the initial pain and continued to also caress Marimo's privates.
