A man left his wife battling for her life after striking her on the head with a hoe over a US$10 loan dispute.
The man, Pastor Nyamudyariwa (34), has been arrested and charged with attempted murder.
During his initial court appearance before Harare regional magistrate Mr Taurai Manuwere, Nyamudyariwa was remanded in custody until May 3.
He was informed that only the High Court had jurisdiction to consider his bail application.

In a fit of anger, he first hit her face with a shoe before striking her head with a hoe.
Ms Mhizha sustained a deep cut and is currently receiving medical treatment at an undisclosed hospital.
