TWO police officers from Masvingo tortured a man to death after he had won a fight against one of them following a row over a fake $5 note.

Brian Magama, 34, and Isaac Kachena, whose age was not given in court, severely beat up Luckson Muringani of Chivhiko Village under Chief Sengwe for the whole night at Chibwedziva police base in 2010.

The two force marched Muringani to Chibwedziva Police Base where they took turns to brutally assault him with truncheons

Muringani later died in hospital after sustaining a fractured skull during the prolonged assault.

In his defence, Magama, argued that Muringani might have fallen off a moving vehicle days after the assault and possibly smashed his head, leading to his death.

Magama was sentenced to 16 years in prison for murder with actual intent.

Kachena is still on the run.
