Ritual murders are not uncommon in Zimbabwe, with one of the most high-profile cases being the murder of Tapiwa Makore Jr by his uncle and namesake in 2020.
Tapiwa Makore Sr and his herdsman Tafadzwa Shamba were recently sentenced to death by High Court judge Munamato Mutevedzi for the murder of the 7-year-old boy.
The murderers allegedly killed Tapiwa to use his head to boost a cabbage business.
