Woman Accused of Poisoning Two Boys Arrested in Mozambique

HARARE — A woman at the centre of social media allegations involving the poisoning of two young boys has reportedly been arrested in Mozambique after allegedly fleeing Zimbabwe.

Vimbai Mushana was taken into custody during a police operation in Mozambique, following days of uncertainty over her whereabouts.

Mushana attracted widespread attention last week after allegations circulated that she had poisoned two boys reportedly fathered by her husband in a previous relationship. The claims sparked public anger, with many people calling for her arrest.

She is alleged to have crossed into Mozambique illegally in an attempt to avoid arrest. However, reports indicate that authorities eventually located and apprehended her.

Details surrounding her arrest, including the exact location and circumstances, have not yet been officially confirmed by Zimbabwean or Mozambican police.

It also remains unclear when or how she could be returned to Zimbabwe to face the allegations.

The case has generated widespread debate about family disputes, child safety and relationships in blended families.

Members of the public have been urged to avoid spreading unverified information as investigations continue.

Mushana is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Further details are expected once authorities issue an official statement.
