A Harare Magistrate Court on Friday cleared Hip Hop star Desmond Stunner Chideme of assault charges that were laid by his wife Dione Tafirenyika.
Chideme was found not guilty after a full trial presided over by Harare magistrate Evelyn Mashayakure.
“There are inconsistencies in Tafirenyika’s testimonies. Clearly, the evidence of the medical affidavit does not support what the complainant told the court,” said the magistrate.
“There is insufficient evidence to point out that the accused could have assaulted the complainant. The court is convinced that the accused is not guilty hence he is acquitted.
Chideme was being accused of assaulting Tafirenyika at the height of a domestic dispute at the Rainbow Towers Hotel back in April.
Meanwhile, the rapper took to social media earlier to share the news in which he was clearly ecstatic.
“Stunner not guilty !!!! Court could not be fooled, haisi social media. Thank you to everyone that stood by me and to those that believe most of the social media nonsense, dzorai moyo coz dzimwe nyaya dzinoda vanhu vaviri,” he wrote on his official Facebook Page.
