Marry Mubaiwa Released After Seven-Year Detention in Murder Case Collapse

October 27, 2026 • 1 hour ago •

HARARE: Marry Mubaiwa, the ex-wife of Zimbabwe’s Vice President Constantino Chiwenga, has been released from custody following the collapse of an attempted murder case against her. Mubaiwa had been held on remand for seven years after being charged in 2019 with plotting to kill her then-husband.

The case against Mubaiwa faced significant scrutiny and was marred by allegations of political motivation. Her lawyer, Beatrice Mtetwa, stated that the prosecution’s failure to present sufficient evidence led to the dismissal of the charges. Mubaiwa has consistently maintained her innocence, claiming the accusations were part of a broader campaign to undermine her.

This development raises questions about the integrity of the judicial process in Zimbabwe, particularly regarding cases involving high-profile political figures. Observers note that Mubaiwa’s release could signal a shift in the political landscape, potentially impacting the Vice President’s standing and the ruling party’s internal dynamics.

Looking ahead, legal experts anticipate that Mubaiwa may pursue further action to clear her name and seek justice for the years lost in detention. The case has drawn international attention, and human rights advocates are calling for a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding her arrest and the subsequent legal proceedings.
