Man kills stepfather over HIV status

A man from Mutoko, Zimbabwe, Luckson Ngoriyo, 29, killed his stepfather, Petros Mutova, 79, for revealing that he was HIV-positive after a domestic dispute.
It is alleged that on the fateful day at around 7pm Ngoriyo whipped his 13-year-old niece, Memory Muhombe, for coming home late and this did not go down well with Mutova and a war of words erupted.
As the dispute raged on, it was reported that Mutova divulged Ngoriyo's HIV status before he retired to bed.
After Mutova had gone to sleep, Ngoriyo followed him and dragged him outside the house and a fight ensued.
It was alleged that Ngoriyo overpowered Mutova and pushed him to the ground where he fell and hit the ground with his head.
Mutova sustained internal injuries and he died the following day at his house after his condition had deteriorated.
His body was taken to Mutoko Hospital mortuary after the murder was reported to the police.
Mashonaland East acting provincial police spokesperson Assistant Inspector Tendai Mwanza confirmed the incident.
He said the police had since launched a manhunt for Ngoriyo who is on the run.
