Zimbabwe’s Consul General to South Africa Mr Batiraishe Mukonoweshuro confirmed that South African police have opened investigations into the death of Zimbabwean nurse Ms Nomsa Ncube (44) who took care of the late Morgan Tsvangirai when he was admitted to Wits Donald Gordon Medical Centre (WDGMC) in Johannesburg where he was receiving treatment for colon cancer.
Mukonoweshuro said they have began the process of repatriating Ncube’s body to Bulawayo for burial. He also added that South African police are yet to give an update on their findings.
Relatives suspect that Ncube was killed on February 18 by unknown assailants at her rented apartment in central Johannesburg. She was criticised when a photo of her posing next to a lifeless Tsvangirai, who was on his hospital bed, went viral on social media. Relatives said her body was found lying in a pool of blood by her maid on the day she was supposed to appear before the WDGNC disciplinary committee in connection with the picture.
