In the case against Rogers and Mukonowatsauka at the Rusape Magistrate court, District prosecutor, Tirivanhu Mutyasira told the court that though the teenage girl agreed to be Rogers' second wife, she didn't give her consent for sex.
"The accused persons are husband and wife and neighbours to the complainant. The complainant’s grandmother sent her to the accused persons’ homestead to collect cooking oil. The complainant found both the accused persons at home," Mutyasira began.
"Mukonowatsauka then started persuading the complainant to become her husband’s second wife and promised to give her cooking oil, sugar, salt, and body lotion if she accepts her proposal.
"The complainant agreed with Mukonowatsauka’s proposal and on October 14, 2015 visited the accused person’s homestead and found both at home. At that instance, Mukonowatsauka took a bucket to fetch water. She closed and locked the door from outside with Manera and the victim inside the room," the prosecutor explained.
Rogers and Mukonowatsauka, who appeared before regional magistrate, Livingstone Chipadza,pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Mukonowatsauka is being jointly charged with her husband who is facing rape charges.
