Muvevi is being charged with four counts of murder and one of attempted murder committed between November 2022 and January this year.
He allegedly committed the offences in Harare, Hwedza and Mutare.
His lawyer Mr Blessed Matandira argued that his client was mentally unfit and wanted him examined to ascertain his mental health position.
In his ruling Mr Mangosi said two doctors who examined Muvevi concurred that he was a mental patient.
The court is motivated to commit him to a psychiatric hospital.
It is the State’s case that on November 19 last year, at around 9pm one Nyasha Eusen was in the company of Nyarai Round at Clan Court, Eastlea, Harare when Muvevi approached them.
Muvevi allegedly produced a pistol and shot Round once on the head for no apparent reason.
Eusen tried to run away but was caught and Muvevi forced him into his Toyota Allion vehicle.
It is alleged that Muvevi drove his vehicle to Huruyadzo Shopping Centre in St Mary’s Chitungwiza with other two unknown men.
