According to Nkhwazi the woman and her son allegedly beat the deceased, Wilfred Chinangwa over household disagreements.

On the material day the deceased came back home from fishing at around 4 pm and found his wife preparing lunch, and considering the time, the man ordered that the cooking should stop and that they should just wait for dinner since it was already late.
