TWO Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison inmates were allegedly caught having anal sex in a dog kennel. Morgan Ruzvidzo (40) and Marceline Kadungure (22) were allegedly caught red-handed by a prison officer during the act.
They were not formally charged with aggravated indecent assault when they appeared before Harare magistrate Ms Anita Tshuma yesterday. Ms Tshuma remanded the duo to January 29 this year for trial. They will be in custody.
Ruzvidzo, who told the court he was left with 20 days to complete his jail term, has been in prison for the past six years. The two convicts are doing time at Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison, based at the prison farm in Highlands, Harare.
Prosecutor Mr Tungamirirai Chakurira alleges that the incident took place on November 6, this year and the offence was discovered by Nyashadzashe Mawereza, a prison officer who was on duty.
The State says Mawereza discovered that one of the dog kennels was not locked as per the custom and went to check why the door was still open.
On arrival, the court heard, he peeped through and saw Ruzvidzo sodomising Kadungure. He reported the case to the officer in charge, leading to the pair’s arrest.
